Great God, When I Approach Thy Throne

1Great God, when I approach thy throne,
And all thy glory see,
This is my stay, and this alone,
That Jesus died for me.

2How can a soul condemned to die,
Escape the just decree?
Helpless, and full of sin am I,
But Jesus died for me.

3Burdened with sin's oppressive chain,
O, how can I get free?
No peace can all my efforts gain,
But Jesus died for me.

4And, Lord, when I behold thy face,
This must be all my plea;
Save me by thy almighty grace,
For Jesus died for me.
