Before The Throne

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