Before the throne of God above

Author: Charitie De Chenez, 1841-1923 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 57 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 3:9 Lyrics: 1 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. 2 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. 3 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. 4 Because the sinless Saviour died, my sinful soul is counted free; for God, the just, is satisfied to look on him and pardon me. 5 Behold him there! the risen Lamb! My perfect, spotless righteousness, the great unchangeable I AM, the King of glory and of grace! 6 One with himself, I cannot die: my soul is purchased by his blood; my life is hid with Christ on high, with Christ, my Saviour and my God.

Ah, Lord, our sins arraigned you and nailed you to the tree; our pride, O Lord, disdained you, yet you have set us free. 3 O glorious King, we praise you, no longer pass you by; O Jesus, we confess you the Son enthroned on high. Lord, grant to us forgiveness; life through your death restore; yes, grant to us the fullness of life forevermore.
