Text:
I Will Plead Your Cause
“. . . (I) am your advocate with the Father; . . .” - Doctrine and Covenants 29:5
Alto: I have sinned and cannot be restored
To Father’s sight, to Father’s heavn’ly door.
I am stopped, but there is One whose life
Was giv’n for me so I would not know strife.
Tenor: I am Christ, and I will plead your cause.
For this I bled so you would not be lost.
I am Christ, who died on Calvary
To show my love to you explicitly.
Tenor: Those who will confess my Name to all,
To those will I confess when Father calls.
But if they deny my Name to men,
They, too, will I deny to Father then.
Alto: I have sinned, but I have faith in Thee;
To be my advocate, will Thou now be?
As I plead for mercy and thy grace,
Will Thou help me discover Father’s face?
Both sing at the same time:
Alto: I have sinned; O will Thou plead my cause
Before my Father’s face, or I’ll be lost?
Thou art Christ, who died on Calvary
To show thy love to me explicitly.
Thou art Christ, who died to save my soul.
Thou art Christ. Thou died to make me whole.
Tenor: I am Christ, and I will plead your cause
Before my Father’s face so you’re not lost.
I am Christ, who died on Calvary
To show my love to you explicitly.
I am Christ, who died to save your soul.
I am Christ. I died to make you whole.
