There is a house in heaven built
1
There is a house in heaven built,The temple of the living God,The tabernacle true, where guiltIs washed away by precious blood.
2
Long since, our High Priest entered there,Who knows the frailties of our frame,Who loves to hear his people's prayer,And offer to our God the same.
3
The daily ministry he bore,Till ended the prophetic days;He opened then the inner door,To justify the sacred place.
4
Before the ark of ten commands,On which the mercy-seat is placed,Presenting his own blood, he stands,Till Israel's sins are all erased.
