this time, let's remain

As I pass through golden gates before the chamber throne,

Once again I praise your name for paving my way home.

Better is the Son you sent from high to rescue me,

than any hope in any god or thing that I could dream (or scheme).

Unworthy to behold your face...

Without the agency of grace...

You found me even in this place.

I come boldly through the door,

Sin's been vanquished evermore...

But this time I shall remain

In your Courts, before your frame.

In the place where victory lives

In this space my Father gives

peace that nowhere else is found

This time I will stay inside,

Never will I turn around.

In my mind and heart I'm home:

With You and nevermore alone.

Psalm 26:⁸ I love your sanctuary, Lord,
the place where your glorious presence dwells.

blessings,

Rob Smith
