Jesus before Thy face I fall
My Lord my life my hope my all
For I have nowhere else to flee
No sanctuary Lord but Thee

In You I see what's good and true
Your safety strength and beauty too
Beloved Savior ever be
A sanctuary Lord to me

The hope of Christ my hiding place
How beautiful Your saving grace
The love of God will ever be
A sanctuary Lord to me

Whatever woes and fears betide
You'll be my shelter where I hide
And as I pour my soul to Thee
A sanctuary Lord You'll be

The hope of Christ my hiding place
How beautiful Your saving grace
The love of God will ever be
A sanctuary Lord to me

Approaching is a day ahead
When Thee will lay my soul to rest
O what a joy this witness gives
Jesus my sanctuary lives

And from the grave You'll raise me up
To sing forever of Your love
And when in glory I'll adore
My sanctuary evermore
