From the whisper of your wonder to the shout at your return
From glimpses of your holiness to the view for which I yearn
Take me to the secret silent place to dwell within your shadow now
Beneath your sheltering wings of grace enfold me as I humbly bow!
I will glory at your throne
Where I know and I am known
There is fire within my bones
In your presence at your throne!
My name written on your hand
So by your grace I will stand
Just as you have always planned
In your presence at your throne!
Now I see in part but then I'll clearly see the whole
Take me to that place where I know and I am known
From mere echoes of your holy holy presence
To the undiminished glory at your throne
For though the veil is rent and I have entrance
Into the most Holy Place I am received,
One day I'll see with purer eyes the way He truly is
Now through a darkened finite mirror I perceive.
I will glory at your throne
Where I know and I am known
There is fire within my bones
In your presence at your throne!
My name is written on your hand
So by your grace I 'll surely stand
Just as you have always planned
In your presence at your throne!
