Before the Throne of God Above

Before the throne of God above I have a strong A perfect plea A great High Priest whose name is Love Who ever lives and pleads for me Before the throne of God above I have a strong A perfect plea A great High Priest whose name is Love Who ever lives and pleads for me My name is graven on His hands My name is written on His heart I know that while in Heaven, He stands No tongue can bid me thence depart Satan tempts me to despair and tells me Of the guilt within Upward I look and see Him there Who made an end to all my sin One with Himself I cannot die My soul is purchased with His blood My life is hid with Christ on high With Christ my Savior and my God With Christ my Savior and my God One with Himself I cannot die My soul is purchased with His blood My life is hid with Christ on high With Christ my Savior and my God With Christ my Savior and my God Behold Him there, the risen Lamb my perfect spotless righteousness The great unchangeable I Am, the King of glory and of grace Because the sinless Savior died My sinful soul is counted free For God the Just is satisfied to look on Him and pardon me To look on Him and pardon me
