Sweet sound to my ears

I fell in love with this song at church on Sunday

I fell more in love with Jesus through this song on Sunday.

Before the Throne of God Above

Before the throne of God above,
I have a strong and perfect plea.
A great High Priest whose name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me.

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.
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 to 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.

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Praise the One, Risen Son of God!

Behold Him there the Risen Lamb
My perfect, spotless righteousness!
The Great Unchangable I AM
The King of Glory and of Grace
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
