I am outside the Palace Walls desiring to enter in
I am outside the Palace Walls because of my great sin
Separated from the KING
from His majesty
from His splendor
Separated from the KING
I am filled with the
longing to enter
I ask to enter, I am bidden to come
my knees are weak, my feelings are numb
The KING desires my company
a thing I cannot comprehend
HE is perfect in all His ways
while I am flawed
I have sinned
I am ushered into His throne room
I am awed by all I see…
the Prince of Peace descends the steps and comes to welcome me
He wraps me within His tender embrace
He strokes my hair and kisses my face
The Dam is broken…
a torrent of tears…
Pain of the past kept hidden for years
out of sight, out of mind
the human philosophy that
makes one blind
all melting, melting,
melting away…
He stroked my hair and asked me to stay
Light has come
Darkness has passed
depths of my soul
rejoicing at last
I am inside the Palace Walls
I have entered in
I am inside the Palace Walls
He has erased my sin.
