|  | 1. | Lord, we've heard the call, "Come forward," | 
|  |  | Unto the most Holy Place, | 
|  |  | To behold shekinah glory | 
|  |  | Shining from Your blessed face. | 
|  |  | Come forward to the Holiest, | 
|  |  | Through the incense altar's prayer; | 
|  |  | No more veil of separation, | 
|  |  | We may boldly enter there. | 
|  | 2. | We come forward by a new way, | 
|  |  | Freshly cut and freshly slain, | 
|  |  | To the Holiest of Holies; | 
|  |  | Glorious access we obtain. | 
|  | 3. | We come forward unto our God, | 
|  |  | Who is sitting on the throne; | 
|  |  | He has paved the way to glory | 
|  |  | By His blood and cross alone. | 
|  | 4. | We come forward to the new age, | 
|  |  | With assured heart, true and bold. | 
|  |  | To enjoy th' eternal purpose, | 
|  |  | Ne're to shrink back to the old. | 
|  | 5. | Praise You, Lord, we've all come forward. | 
|  |  | Now within the Holiest, | 
|  |  | You're our God, and we're Your people; | 
|  |  | Here we dwell forever blest. |
