Open the Gates Here comes the King Victorious over sin and death Here comes the King To you oh Lord I lift my soul In every downcast state In the midst of all my Suffering In the face of my enemy Under the weight of all my shame You will deliver me For none who wait on you Wait in vain Your death has removed my stains For your name's sake Pardon my guilt For it is great My God and King Hear my plea And show your servant Mercy Teach me your paths And instruct me In your truth sanctify me Help me to know And keep your ways Lead me in truth God of my salvation I will wait I will wait on you Because of your perfect and steadfast love You have mercy on me At the cross, you spilled your blood For someone so undeserving Under the pressure I buckle Throughout temptations I struggle Oh God, make me humble Now to follow your ways My God and King Hear my plea Show your servant Mercy Great high priest You've claimed victory To you I draw near in need Give me Jesus Or give me death Because without you I am without hope
