Coram Deo

Before the face of God we stand, He knows the hearts of men

He knows our every secret our desires and every sin

He knows the plans that He has made to cover us with grace

And so we boldly stand before His throne, before His face,

The eyes that saw creation’s birth and in His image made

This dust into a living being, earth’s good foundations laid

Made to enjoy His presence, ever glorious, ever to gaze

Upon the Holy Three in One and to ever seek His face

Bridge

Lord we desire your presence more than all else that you give

To dwell within your righteousness forever there to live

Now upon Your power and glory we may turn our gaze

As souls a-thirsting after the smile upon Your  face

So many times we stray away and so we must return

To our loving Father once His hard lesson we learn

And so we will pursue Him though the prodigal path we’ve trod

And seek the ever loving ever holy face of God

So purify your hearts you sinners and to Him draw near

And He will draw near to you, who have a holy fear

We rest within His favor when we apprehend His grace

With clean hands and a pure heart we will seek His face

And so we will pursue Him though the prodigal path we’ve trod

And seek the ever loving, ever holy face of God

We seek the ever loving, ever holy face of God

We stand before the ever loving, holy face of God
