Lord Jesus, you're more excellent
Than moses' ancient covenant
Its law you perfectly obeyed
And on the cross its curse you paid
My royal priest is excellent
Above the dying priests who went
In yearly terror through the veil
But once for all Christ did prevail
But once for all Christ did prevail
Lord Jesus, you're more excellent
Than all the guardian angels sent
To guide our steps both day and night
Since Jesus guards with sovereign might
Great saviour, you're more excellent
Than all the devil's arrows spent
In furious rage against the ones
For whom Christ died to make his sons
For whom Christ died to make his sons
Kind Jesus, you're more excellent
Than doubts and troubles I invent
Your life laid down, my victory won
My advocate, God's holy son
O Christ, you are most excellent
By new and better covenant
Redeeming love who took my part
Inscribe your law upon my heart
Inscribe your law upon my heart
O righteous one, most excellent
Your cross fulfilled the covenant
O worthy one, who took my place
I long to worship face to face
I long to worship face to face
