1. Lord Jesus, there above,
Pleading at the throne,
Melt all my heart with love,
Let Thy will be done:
Break chains and binding ties,
While I wait in pray’r:
Hold the cross before my eyes,
Hold and fix it there.
(Chorus) Now let the blood prevail,
Self can do naught but fail:
Come, sanctify and fill,
In Thy fullness dwell.
2. Lord Jesus, there above,
On thy Father’s throne,
Show me Thy right to have
My life for Thine own:
I see Thy victory,
Even death is done:
Thou hast paid full price for me,
I am not my own.
3. Lord Jesus, there above,
Waiting for Thy throne,
Come back, Thy rights to prove,
Come and reign alone:
How dare I see Thy face,
If I aught withhold;
So I watch and yield and wait,
At the cross made bold.
