Before The Throne

C  F  Am  C
C  F  Am  C


[Verse 1]
           C         F    C
Before the throne of God above
         C                  Em
I have a strong and perfect plea
             F            G    Am
A great High Priest whose name is Love
         F                G   C
Who ever lives and pleads for me


[Chorus]
           F             C
My name is graven on His hands
           F       G      Am
My name is written on His heart
            F        G         Am
I know that while in Heaven He stands
              F             G Am
No tongue can bid me thence depart
              F             G C
No tongue can bid me thence depart


[Interlude]
C  F  Am  C


[Verse 2]
           C         F    C
When Satan tempts me to despair
             C                Em
And tells me of the guilt within
          F        G       Am
Upwards I look and see Him there
            F          G  C
Who made an end to all my sin


[Chorus]
            F              C
Because the sinless Savior died
          F       G       Am
My sinful soul is counted free
            F       G    Am
For God the Just is satisfied
           F          G   Am
To look on Him and pardon me
           F          G   C
To look on Him and pardon me


[Interlude]
C  F  Am  C


[Verse 3]
       C              F     C
Behold Him there, the risen Lamb
           C                 Em
My perfect spotless Righteousness
            F      G     Am
The great unchangeable I Am
            F         G  C
The King of glory and of grace


[Chorus]
            F              C
One with Himself, I cannot die
           F         G      Am
My soul is purchased by His blood
           F        G         Am
My life is hid with Christ on high
                F          G  Am
With Christ, my Savior and my God
                F          G  C
With Christ, my Savior and my God
