[Ourselves how can we purify?]
Wash you, make you clean; put away, &c.
—i. 16, 17.
Ourselves how can we purify?
Thy word doth power convey,
And while we on Thy word rely,
We cast our sins away;
From sinful acts our hands we cleanse,
The cursed thing remove,
Bring forth the fruits of penitence,
And wait Thy pardoning love.
Thy word doth power convey,
And while we on Thy word rely,
We cast our sins away;
From sinful acts our hands we cleanse,
The cursed thing remove,
Bring forth the fruits of penitence,
And wait Thy pardoning love.
Jesus, if Thou Thy power bestow,
From evil deeds we cease,
And learn in all the paths to go
Of legal righteousness:
But draw us on by hope and fear,
Till weary and oppress'd,
The reconciling word we hear,
And find the gospel-rest.
From evil deeds we cease,
And learn in all the paths to go
Of legal righteousness:
But draw us on by hope and fear,
Till weary and oppress'd,
The reconciling word we hear,
And find the gospel-rest.
