Exalted Lord

Great exalted Lord of all,
we praise your name -
piercing light,
seeing right -
none escape the guilt and shame
before you in the judgment hall.

Great exalted Lord of all,
born within this world to live -
not giving in,
but bearing sin -
by grace the sinners’ sin forgive
that all may hear your loving call.

Great exalted Lord of all,
we praise your name -
you are the best,
we are the guest.
By faith our promised place we claim
together feast in banquet hall.
