Enter In
Twila Paris's song "Enter In" is a worship piece that reflects on the access believers now have to God's presence through the resurrection of Jesus. The lyrics contrast the old covenant, where the holy of holies was off-limits, with the new reality opened by the empty tomb. It invites listeners to come boldly into God's presence, leaving behind their former lives. The song also includes a prayer for God to fill the worshipping congregation with His presence. Themes of grace, salvation, and surrender are woven throughout, making it a fitting piece for personal devotion or corporate worship.
The holiest of hearts the holiest of rooms
We had no right to come inside
Until we found the tomb
Now we are not alone
And from Your gracious throne
You gently call us home to enter in
Enter in, come into My presence
Enter in, come boldly in My name
I open up the door to life forevermore
Leave all you were before and enter in
We gather in this place to worship at Your feet
In reverence and unison the mystery is sweet
A simple offering of hearts to You we bring
And we invite the King to enter in
Enter in, fill us with Your presence
Enter in, we come here in Your name
We open up the door, we wait before you Lord
We ask You now once more to enter in
I open up the door to life forevermore
Leave all you were before and enter in
We humbly ask You Lord to enter in
