[Not one of our polluted race]
Not one of our polluted race,
Not one of the angelic kind,
Can man's ingratitude efface,
Or change the filthy, carnal mind:
Such power belongs to Him alone,
Who heal'd the leper at His feet;
He can in me His grace make known,
He can the cleansing word repeat.
Not one of the angelic kind,

Or change the filthy, carnal mind:
Such power belongs to Him alone,
Who heal'd the leper at His feet;
He can in me His grace make known,
He can the cleansing word repeat.
My hope of spotless righteousness
I build on His omnipotence;
He now my prostrate spirit sees,
He soon my evil heart shall cleanse;
Confiding in His gracious will,
Who did for me His life resign,
I wait the sovereign touch to feel,
I catch the purity Divine.
