Year after year there the priest would stand
An offering of blood held out in in his hand
Before the curtain there he would stand in fright
It hung there to hold in the holy ~ to keep in the light
A new and living way
Through the curtain that was torn
The climax of the cross
The moment our hope was born
By a new and living way
And when time was full another Priest came to save
He would offer forgiveness for He was the Offering He gave
From the sacrifice ~ from that dark disgrace
Came the power to make anywhere a Most Holy Place
A new and living way
Through the curtain that was torn
The climax of the cross
The moment our Hope was born
By a new and living way
With confidence we come
So let us come now with confidence
With sprinkled hearts ~ with reverence
And hold unswervingly to that Hope
As we look and see that day approach
A new and living way
A new and living way
Repeat
A new and living way
Through the curtain that was torn
The climax of the cross
The moment our Hope was born
A new and living way
Through the curtain that was torn
The Climax of the cross
The moment our HOPE was born
By a New and Living Way
A New and Living WAY
A New and Living WAY
