Inside the Veil

Through Thy pre­cious bo­dy brok­en

Inside the veil;

O what words to sin­ners spok­en

Inside the veil!

Precious as the blood that bought us

Perfect as the love that sought us

Holy as the Lamb that brought us

Inside the veil!

When we see Thy love un­shak­en

Outside the camp;

Scorned by man

by God for­sak­en

Outside the camp;

Thy loved cross alone can charm us

Shame need now no more alarm us

Glad we fol­low

naught can harm us

Outside the camp.

Lamb of God

through Thee we en­ter

Inside the veil;

Cleansed by Thee

we bold­ly ven­ture

Inside the veil;

Not a stain; a new cre­ation;

Ours is such a full sal­va­tion;

Low we bow in ad­or­ation

Inside the veil.

Unto Thee

the home­less strang­er

Outside the camp

Forth we hasten

fear no dan­ger

Outside the camp.

Thy re­proach

far rich­er trea­sure

Than all Egypt’s boast­ed plea­sure;

Drawn by love that knows no mea­sure

Outside the camp.

Soon Thy saints shall all be ga­thered

Inside the veil;

All at home

no more be scat­tered

Inside the veil.

Naught from Thee our hearts shall sev­er;

We shall see Thee

grieve Thee nev­er;

Praise the Lamb! shall sound for ev­er

Inside the veil!
