My Advocate
He pleads my case before God’s throne,
My Advocate above,
Who bore my sins and died for me
Then rose to show His love.
I never have to be afraid
His plea will be denied,
For by His work on my behalf
God’s wrath was satisfied.
The Father loves to hear the Son
Who lifts His wounded hands
To intercede for those He’s saved
While in my place He stands.
My Judge and Lawyer, King and Friend,
Is pleading still for me;
My case is safe in Jesus’ hands –
Praise God, I’m truly free!
