C G C G C G Before the throne of God above Em G I have a strong, a perfect plea: C G A great High Priest, whose name is Love, Em G Who ever lives and pleads for me. Em D My name is graven on his hands, Em G My name is written on his heart; C D Em I know that while in heaven he stands C G No tongue can bid me thence depart C G No tongue can bid me thence depart. When Satan tempts me to despair, And tells me of the guilt within, Upward I look, and see him there Who made an end of all my sin. Because a 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 Behold him there, the risen Lamb My perfect, spotless righteousness, The great unchangeable I am, The King of glory and of grace! One in himself, I cannot die My soul is purchased by his blood My life is hid with Christ on high, With Christ, my Savior and my God With Christ, my Savior and my God
