Faces covered, wings resplendent,
Seraphim before Him bow!
Angels tremble, martyrs weep,
and saints perfected
praise Him now!
Holy is the angels� Maker,
He who spread
His stars in the skies.
Holy is the Judge of Creation,
all lies bare before His eyes!
Woe is me, for I am ruined!
For my eyes have seen the King!
Robed in righteousness, and holy:
Hear the Voice of Judgment ring!
All unclean, my lips, my spirit,
vile and foul in all I do!
All corrupt, my heart within me,
wretched, wicked
through and through!
Every hope I must abandon!
Guilty, I await His stroke.
Now must come
His righteous sentence
Wait! A Bright Form parts the smoke!
Bleeding feet stride
through the temple!
Christ approaches, weeping love!
Wounded hands
remove my filthiness,
God�s caress in every move.
Freely righteous! Full atonement!
Justified, from sin set free!
By the Word of God the Father,
I�m declared as pure as HE!
At the Cross,
His wounds acquit me!
Fatal wounds proclaim His praise!
And the Empty Tomb
sings His glories:
Justice is assuaged by Grace!
