I Come Before You Holy

And the ancients come before you;
       And the people sing alleluia;
       As the wonders of wonders;
       Marvelously comes forth;
       This is my testimony, this is my devotion;
       This is my reasons for making Jesus my choice;

       And God the people think me odd;
       And Lord I must withstand the ridicule;
       I've repented and turned myself around;
       I've stop those choices that had me hell bound;

      Oh, Lord, God I come before you Holy
      I come before you Holy
      I'm no longer the man that I used to be
      Oh, Lord, I come before you Holy
      I come before you Holy
      I've stop doing those evil and unclean things;
      Father God I am yours

      All the naysayers and the doubters;
      All the saved and under minders;
      All those back-biting believers;
      All those under achievers
      I call them out, yes I call you out
      You who are the backslider, preacher one thing but doing another;

      And God people think their odd;
      And Lord they to are ridiculed;
      I can't judged them for this is where I once was;
      All I can do is pray for them to turn it around,
      Pray for them so that they won't be hell bound;

      Oh, Lord I come before you Holy
      We all come before you Holy
       Sinners saved by grace awaiting your heavenly place
       I come before you Holy
       I am no longer the man I used to be;
       Because I come before you Holy
       We are not what we were as you can see, now we're clean;
       We come before you Holy
       Oh, Lord I come before you Holy
