lyrics

Verse 1:
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 (2x)

Verse 2:
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 the sinless Savior died
My sinful soul is counted free
for God the just is satisfied
to look on Him and pardon me (2x)

Chorus 1:
Before the Throne, I come before the throne
I stand alone, but not alone
He stands with me, but more than with me
He stands for me as His own
My heart will dance before the throne

Verse 3:
Behold Him there, the Risen Lamb
My perfect, spotless righteousness,
The great unchangeable I AM,
The King of glory and of grace!
One with 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 (2x)

Chorus 2:
Before the Throne, I come before Your throne
My heart of stone, in you atoned
Now I am dust, come recreate me
Sing your song in these dry bones
My heart will dance (w/ You) before Your throne

Response:
You’ve been waiting all these years
You’ve been waiting all these hours, all these days
You’ve been waiting for the chance
to take the shackles off your feet and dance
How you can dance!
Now is the time to be free
Now is the time to make your choice, to make your choice
Now is the time to be free
Now is the time to make your voice, to make your voice heard

Chorus 3:
Before the Throne, come sing before the throne
You stand alone, but not alone
I stand with you, but more than with you
I stand for you as my own
My spirit dances now with you before the throne.
