{c: Verse 1}
Before the [D]throne of [Em/D]God a[D]bove
I have a [D]strong and perfect [F#m]plea
A great High [G]Priest whose [A]name is [Bm]Love
Who ever [G]lives and [Em]pleads [G/A]for [D]me
{soc}
My name is [G]grav[D/F#]en on His [Asus]hands, [A]
My [D]name is [G]writ[D/F#]ten on His [Bm]heart.
I know that [G]while [D/F#]in [A]heav'n He [Bm]stands
No [Bm/A]tongue can [G]bid me [Em]thence [G/A]de[Bm]part
No [Bm/A]tongue can [G]bid me [Em]thence [G/A]de[D]part.
{eoc}

{c: Verse 2}
When Satan [D]tempts me [Em/D]to de[D]spair
And tells me [D]of the guilt with[F#m]in,
Upward I [G]look and [A]see Him [Bm]there
Who made an [G]end to [Em]all [G/A]my [D]sin.
{soc}
Because the [G]sin[D/F#]less Saviour [Asus]died [A]
My [D]sinful [G]soul [D/F#]is counted [Bm]free.
For God the [G]Just [D/F#]is [A]satis[Bm]fied
To [Bm/A]look on [G]Him and [Em]par[G/A]don [Bm]me,
To [Bm/A]look on [G]Him and [Em]par[G/A]don [D]me.
{eoc}

{c: Verse 3}
Behold Him [D]there the [Em/D]risen [D]Lamb
My perfect [D]spotless righteous[F#m]ness
The great un[G]changea[A]ble I [Bm]Am
The King of [G]glory [Em]and [G/A]of [D]grace
{soc}
One with Him[G]self [D/F#]I cannot [Asus]die [A]
My [D]soul is [G]pur[D/F#]chased by His [Bm]blood
My life is [G]hid [D/F#]with [A]Christ on [Bm]high
With [Bm/A]Christ my [G]Saviour [Em]and [G/A]my [Bm]God!
With [Bm/A]Christ my [G]Saviour [Em]and [G/A]my [D]God!
