One final sacrifice – v2

The one singular priest
pure, no need for sacrifice;
entering the Holy of Holies
where few may enter in.

Going the way of Aaron
entering into the center;
a sacrifice like no other
the lamb giving Himself.

Prayers to the Father
God choosing to sacrifice;
climbing the altar of the cross
that we no more may die.

One final sacrifice
once and for all time;
one pure offering of love,
complete, sublime.
