we now may enter
Christ tore the curtain
the dividing line
between people and God
we don’t need a high
priest
because Jesus was our high
priest
we don’t need a sacrifice
because Jesus is the Lamb
of God
we now may enter in
we have access to the
throne room of God
Christ tore the curtain
that separated us from
God.
