[Verse 1]
           G         C    G
Before the throne of God above
                            Bm
I have a strong and perfect plea;
             C            D       Em
A Great High Priest whose name is Love,
         Am                   G
Who ever lives and pleads for me.
 
           C         G   D
My name is graven on His hands;
G          C          D   Em
My name is written on His heart.
D           Em
I know that while in Heav'n He stands,
              C             Em
No tongue can bid me thence depart.
              C             G
No tongue can bid me thence depart.
 
 
[Verse 2]
           G         C    G
When Satan tempts me to despair
                          Bm
And tells me of the guilt within,
         C        D       Em
Upward I look and see Him there,
            Am            G
Who made an end to all my sin.
 
            C       G      D
Because the sinless Savior died,
G          C      D       Em
My sinful soul is counted free.
D           Em
For God the Just is satisfied
           C              Em
To look on Him and pardon me,
           C              G
To look on Him and pardon me.
 
 
[Verse 3]
           G          C     G
Behold Him there, the risen Lamb;
                     Bm
My perfect, spotless Righteousness;
              C     D     Em
The great, unchangeable I AM;
            Am           G
The King of Glory and of Grace.
 
            C       G      D
One with Himself, I cannot die;
G          C         D      Em
My soul is purchased by His blood!
D          Em
My life is hid with Christ on high,
               C             Em
With Christ my Savior and my God,
               C             G
With Christ my Savior and my God.
 
 
[Verse 4]
         G       C        G
I bow before the cross of Christ
                   Bm
And marvel at this love divine:
              C       D     Em
God's perfect Son was sacrificed
           Am           G
To make me righteous in God's eyes!
 
             C        G      D
This river's depths I cannot know,
G         C     D      Em
But I can glory in its flood.
D             Em
The Lord Most High has bowed down low
              C               Em
And poured on me His glorious love,
              C               G
And poured on me His glorious love.
 
 
             C        G      D
This river's depths I cannot know,
G         C     D      Em
But I can glory in its flood.
D             Em
The Lord Most High has bowed down low
              C               Em
And poured on me His glorious love,
              C               G
And poured on me His glorious love.
