Thro’ thy precious body broken
“Inside the veil”
Oh, what words to sinners spoken
“Inside the veil!”
Precious as the blood that bought us,
Perfect as the love that sought us,
Holy as the Lamb that brought us,
“Inside the veil”
When we see thy love unshaken,
“Outside the camp!”
Scorned of man, by God forsaken,
“Outside the camp!”
Thy loved cross alone can charm us,
Shame doth now no more alarm us,
Glad we follow, naught can harm us,
“Outside the camp!”
“Unto thee,” the homeless stranger,
“Outside the camp!”
Forth we hasten, fear no danger,
“Outside the camp!”
Thy reproach far greater treasure,
Than all Egypt’s boasted pleasure,
Drawn, by love that knows no measure,
“Outside the camp!”
Soon thy saints shall all be gathered,
“Inside the veil!”
All at home, no more be scattered,
“Inside the veil!”
Naught from thee our hearts shall sever,
We shall see thee, grieve thee never,
“Praise the Lamb,” shall sound forever,.
“Inside the veil!”
