Start in the outer court,
But aim to get inside;
The Holy Place is good,
But do not there abide.
Leave sin behind—it’s put away;
We’re in the veil with God to stay.

To rise from earth to heav’n,
A deeper turn we need;
To be where Christ is now
Upon the throne indeed.
We’re gathered at the throne of grace,
Beholding Jesus face to face.

Not individually;
Not private Christians now,
But Body Christians we.
As members here in one accord,
We are the Body of the Lord.

As Body Christians now
We have a higher word.
Foundation’s word we see,
’Tis altar, cross, and blood.
Perfection’s word is little known,
’Tis fellowship around the throne.

In our experience;
Our spirit is the key.
God, throne, and holiest—we see
Our spirit now contains all three.

Leviticus is past,
And Aaron’s work is o’er;
Melchisedec is here,
High Priest forevermore;
His ministry is now so fine:
He comes to feed us bread and wine.

Are we ready to greet the Lord face to face? He is coming soon, to overcome we need to mature in His life and nature. We can live out the resurrected life victoriously!
Same tune as
'Arise, my soul, arise! shake off thy guilty fears! '
