Jesus Christ our Lord and King
Hides us under His mighty wing
He's made a way past the Veil
By the work of the cross and the nail
Follow Jesus Christ our King
To heavenly courts where angels sing
Into the Most Holy Place
And look upon the Father's face.
Chorus
The mercy seat above the golden ark
Justice and mercy endureth forever
The law, God's character, dispelling all dark
Justice and mercy endureth forever
Mercy and justice have kissed one another
They are forever joined together.
Bridge
Justice and mercy, the fruit of His love
The base of His throne above
Its mercy and justice at time's last breath
When His tears will fall with the fire and death
Chorus
Coda
Justice and mercy endureth forever
Revealing His love and infinite wisdom
Justice and mercy endureth forever
They are the strength of His kingdom.
