Lonely Golgatha, two thousand years ago The giver of all life gave up His human soul All the earth would tremble, deep thunder clouds would form And in the center of the temple the holy veil was torn And on that day Was made a passage way Into the very presence of the Lord
And i walked within the veil And saw the glory of God the Father beheld And felt the touch of Him who knew me so well Then I fell on my knees and worshiped...within the veil
Within the veil there's a consuming fire That purifies my thoughts and changes my desires Offerings of confession with every word I speak But His forgiveness gives me strength when Temptation has me weak And I return each day, to that holy place Where His arms are opened wide to welcome me... To welcome me
And I walk within the veil And see the glory of God the Father beheld and feel the touch of Him who knows me so well Then I fall on my knees and worship...within the veil
One final day I'll touch the door of death My sould will enter heaven with the sound of my last breath The long and lonely journey will have been worth it all And I'll stand before my Father in fulfillment of my call Then I'll see His face...in that holy place
