At first I am afraid
But not because of fear
But the holy of holies is drawing me near
Your voice like thunder
Shakes the ground I'm on

Hide my face in the shadow of your wings oh Lord
Hide my sin from the beauty here before your throne

Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
And so we enter in to see your face
Enter in to see your face oh God

I'm falling to my knees
I feel the earth beneath
With the weight of my sin and this crushing unbelief
Could you really love me
With all that I've done

Hide my face in the shadow of your wings oh Lord
Hide my sin from the beauty here before your throne

Hide my face in the shadow of your wings oh Lord
Hide my sin from the beauty here before your throne

Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
So we enter in to see your face
Enter in to see your face oh God

Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
Hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain
So we enter in to see your face
Enter in to see your face oh God

You spread your hands
And made a refuge for the weak
And blessed the weary bruised and broken
Took us in
Inside your wounds we hide away
Inside your wounds we hide

You spread your hands
And made a refuge for the weak
And blessed the weary bruised and broken



Behind the Song:
“‘Hallelujah,’ for me, is a need to understand the gospel. The chorus is a phrase in Revelations that says, ‘The church will sing for ever and ever’ which is hallelujah for the blood of the lamb that was slain. The very end of the bridge says, ‘Inside your wounds we hide away.’ So this song is just a reminder that if God is who He says He is, if He’s holy, we should be really scared, unless someone gets in between the glory of God and us little simple humans. The beauty of that song is we have a savior that has come in between the wrath of God and us.” - Mike Donehey (Tenth Avenue North)
