This hymn has a unique tune

 

 1  The veil is rent! Lo! Jesus stands

       Before the throne of grace;

    And clouds of incense from His hands

       Fill all that glorious place.

 

 2  His precious blood is sprinkled there,

       Before and on the throne;

    And His own wounds in heav'n declare

       His work on earth is done.

 

 3  " 'Tis finished!" on the cross He said,

       'In agonies and blood;

    'Tis finished: now He lives to plead

       Before the face of God.

 

 4  " 'Tis finished!" Here our souls can rest,

       His work can never fail;

    By Him, our Sacrifice and Priest,

       We enter through the veil.
