Boldness before His Presence – v2

Not like Job, calling our God
not to question; but to approach
to bow before His heavenly throne

A boldness of the saving we share
the loving reconciliation
the gift of grace which allows us
to come face to face with God

Boldly, as the apostle wrote,
so long ago, to the church in Ephesus
to go into God’s presence
with reverence and with confidence
because of the sacrifice of Christ
