In the Holy of Holies
Behind that heavy veil
sat the ark of the covenant
Where the Most High dwelt
And only the High Priest
Could enter therein
To offer up a sacrifice
For atonement of sin
But the veil was rent in instant
Revealing that holy place
For on hill nearby on a rugged cross
Justice met Grace

Now I can go into the Holy of Holies
I can kneel and make my petitions known
I can go into the Holy of Holies
And although I'm just a common man
Because of God's redemption plan
I can boldly approach the throne

The blood of sacrifices is no more required
For the blood of Christ, the spotless Lamb
Completely paid the price
In the sacrifice of worship, we'll open heaven's doors
Allowing us to enter in the presence of the Lord

Now I can go into the Holy of Holies
I can kneel and make my petitions known
I can go into the Holy of Holies
And although I'm just a common man
Because of God's redemption plan
I can boldly approach the throne
