Horns of the altar

Horns of the altar
by Joel Howard

I take hold of the altar
I take hold of the blood of the Lamb
I stand forgiven here
I stand forgiven here

I stand now forgiven
I stand in the blood and the grace of the One
Who has called me his friend
Who has called me again
I take hold of the altar

Soft
You have shown me mercy
Father, I run to Thee!

Grace
You have bent from heaven
Shown me mercy again

I take hold of the altar!
I stand in forgiveness God you call me friend
You call me forgiven

I take hold of your mercy
I seek now asylum from all of my foes
From all of my enemies
In your love for me
In your love for me!

Take me
Father remake me into your image
I plead for your mercy

Father
Let your will be done now in my world
Come let us get heaven

I take hold of the horns
I take hold of the horns
Of the altar

I run into your arms
I fly into your arms
With confidence
And I will live

In the horns of the altar
I run to the Father
I run to the Lamb who was slain

I can't bank on another
I run to the Father
I come as I am
I come as I am
I come as I am!
