Curtain Mystery

Categories: Easter

A mystery I shall never quite understand
Is the curtain that was split by a divine hand
Letting me see the holy presence of God
By the tearing apart of the body of Christ, Living Word.

This wonderful, fresh, new, living way
Gives me access to God’s throne night and day.
It’s a place where I can be at rest
Talk everything through with the one who knows best.

It is always open so that I, without fear,
Whenever I wish may draw very near
See the glory of God through Jesus his Son
Simply by faith accepting what has been done.

No, I don’t understand this mystery
But by faith I accept God’s love for me
Enter into his presence and gratefully pour
At his feet all my love; I worship. I adore.
