This is a very powerful song. Here Rowan is describing how terrible and worthless he is in the presence of God. How unworthy he feels to recieve God grace. He says, "If I see the face of God I will die! " He knows that if he sees the face of God, another way of saying accepting Christ, then he will die. And you see at the end: And somewhere, a saint is weeping
Whispering my name
Saying, "Let him see the face of God
Let him die."
A verse sums up all of this. "If Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin but the Spirit is Life because of righteousness." Romans 8:10
You must "see the face of God" and die in order to live.
