The altar of burnt offering In God’s economy, Is Christ, the bronzed acacia wood, Judged in humanity. The altar of burnt offering The cross of Christ displays, One person—Christ; one way—the cross— Encompass all God’s ways. |

The altar of burnt offering’s Where precious blood was shed; The blood of Jesus is our plea As forward we are led. The altar of burnt offering Is meeting God’s demand, God’s righteousness and holiness Are our eternal stand. |

Come forward to the Holiest; With God, in oneness, pray; The precious blood’s applied again, God’s economic way. Anointing oil applied upon Both altars clearly shows: The move of God’s eternal grace Between two altars flows. |

The fire from heaven, which came down To burn the offered Son, Becomes the fire to incense burn, As fragrance to God’s throne; The sweetness we experience Through Christ’s inclusive death, Is sweetness unto God through our Ascending, praying breath. |
