hallelujah - tenth avenue north


At first I am afraid
But not because of fear
But the holy of holies is drawing me near
Your voice like thunder
Shakes the ground I'm on

So hide my face in the shadow of Your wings, oh Lord
Hide my sin from the beauty here before Your throne, Your throne

Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
And so we enter in to see Your face, yeah
We enter in to see Your face, oh God, mmmm...

Well I'm falling to my knees
I feel the earth beneath
With the weight of my sin and this crushing unbelief
Could You really love me
With all that I've done, oh Lord

So hide my face in the shadow of Your wings, oh Lord
Hide my sin from the beauty here before Your throne
So hide my face in the shadow of Your wings, oh Lord
Hide my sin from the beauty here before Your throne

Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
And so we enter in to see Your face, yeah
We enter in to see Your face, oh God, oh God
We sing Lord

Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
And so we enter in to see Your face, yeah
We enter in to see Your face, oh God

You spread Your hands
And made a refuge for the weak
And blessed the weary bruised and broken
Took us in
Inside Your wounds we hide away
Inside Your wounds we hide

You spread Your hands
And made a refuge for the weak
And blessed the weary bruised and broken
Took us in
Inside Your wounds we hide away
Inside Your wounds we hide

Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
And so we enter in to see Your face, yeah
We enter in to see Your face, oh God

Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
And so we enter in to see Your face, yeah
We enter in to see Your face, oh God

  1. R...Forgive me? It has been some time since checking in with you here. Just...feeling like I'm barely keeping my head above water. Your blog looks lovely and professional, and as always, such an encouraging stop along the way as we travel this dusty road together. Many blessings. Bernadette

    1. No forgiveness is necessary...the head barely above water? That was a lot of the last year for me. So I completely understand!
      Thank you! Your words are always such a sweet blessing to me!

  3. Hi R,

    I'm not familiar with this song by tenth Ave North. I like their Beloved song. Do you know that one too?

    Have a great day,

    1. Oh, I like Beloved. My favorites are Times, and Hold My Heart by them.
      Have a wonderful day! :)

  4. Oh, this beautiful song is just what I need today. We've sung the chorus (Hallelujah part), at church before but with different lyrics, (though I can't really remember). Thanks for sharing. Love & prayers, in Jesus, Cynthia
