In the holiest place

1
In the holiest place, touch the throne of grace,
Grace as a river shall flow;
In the holiest place, touch the throne of grace,
Grace as a river shall flow.
  Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Grace as a river shall flow;
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Grace as a river shall flow.
2
In the holiest place, live before His face,
Light of glory thru me will shine;
In the holiest place, live before His face,
Light of glory thru me will shine.
  Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Light of glory thru me will shine;
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Light of glory thru me will shine.
3
To the spirit turn, and the incense burn,
Touch the living fountain of life;
To the spirit turn, and the incense burn,
Touch the living fountain of life.
  Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Touch the living fountain of life;
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Touch the living fountain of life.

I'm going to sing this song with my new neighbor today while we are walking. I chose it because it speaks of the holiest place - which today is in our spirit! This is where I want to be - in my spirit - the holiest place, because His Spirit is there with me.

The third stanza says, “To the spirit turn, and the incense burn, touch the living fountain of life.” Hallelujah! This living fountain proceeds out of the throne and come into us and springs up into eternal life! (John 4:14) Praise the Lord that we have a flowing God, and we’re in this flow!

The first stanza of Hymn #770 says, "In the holiest place, touch the throne of grace, / Grace as a river shall flow." This is what Revelation 22:1 says: There is "a river of water of life, bright as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb in the middle of its street." That throne of God is the throne of grace. Whenever we come to the throne of grace, the grace of God is like a river flowing to us.
