Gods Mercy Seat of Love
Come into the Holy Place—
Come see God’s mercy seat of love!
All covered in shiny gold—
With two cherubim above.
The home of God’s covenant—
Written with His hand;
Inscribed on Mount Sinai—
His great love to expand.
Can you see the Shekinah glory?
Come boldly into this place.
You’ll be completely safe—
For you are living under grace.
God’s law is his character—
A law of love that glorifies.
Each soul who walks in grace—
Knows our loving Saviour justifies.
The mercy seat’s an ark of beauty;
Compassion is found there.
God’s presence in his sanctuary;
No greater glory to compare.
When God’s presence left the temple,
There was no more mercy for Israel;
Destroyed in AD 70;
Her people found death and toil.
God’s mercy seat of love
Whispers to each soul—
An invitation to glorification;
A life that’s pure and whole.
In his mercy, he forgives us,
Should we fall under the law.
We’re justified by God’s grace—
His great love and mercy to adore.
