Let Us Rejoice

In pronouncement of death
the seven seals remain closed
I hear my doom, like ringing bells
Oh Lion of Judah
Oh great I Am
The law of death
has a hold on my life

In condemnation, my jail
I see only these steel bars
I hear the chains, harsh screams
Oh Slain Lamb
Oh great Priest
The law requires
that which I can not give

In righteousness, barely
the law of love comes in
and the flames kiss and sing
Oh Spirit of fire
Oh great Love
The mercy of blood
has a hold on my life

In flesh I am dead by sin
In spirit I have life by love
I hear the bells and laugh
Oh Lover of my Soul
Oh great Son
The lover lives
He lives in me.

Let us rejoice.
