Victory Veil

"And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost. And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom" (Mark 15:37,38).

Behold the veil torn in two,
With top to bottom rip;
By it God bids me and you
Draw near in fellowship.

See, the hand of God has torn
That separating veil!
Hear the shout of Jesus warn
That hell shall not prevail!

Now within that holy place
Where sinners were forbidden,
God invites us by His grace
To view what once was hidden.

Come into the holiest,
Where God and sinners meet!
Come now; find in Christ your rest,
And worship at His feet!
