Lets Meet Him At the Mercy Seat

Let's Meet Him At the Mercy Seat

"Let us go to his dwelling place; let us worship at his footstool- arise, O LORD, and come to your resting place, you and the ark of your might.” Psa 132: 7-8

Let’s go into God’s tabernacle
Let us worship at His footstool
Let’s meet Him at the Mercy Seat
Where His great strength rules
Our priest is clothed with righteousness
He intercedes for us
Saved by His blood
Shed on a cruel Roman cross.

At the glorious Mercy Seat
Angels praise and worship
Governed by the contents
Intercession by our Lordship
A scene of great beauty
Such glory in this place
God’s love and mercy
His justifying grace.

Of all the symbols 
In God’s sanctuary of three parts
In the Holy of Holies
His power He imparts
This is the place of atonement
The full plan of salvation
Through our Lord and Savior
His priestly meditation.

Let’s meet Him at the Mercy Seat
Worship our King
Praise, honor and glory
Atonement He brings
Separated by sin
Now restored by the blood
Through the true sacrifice
Of our loving God.
