HYMN 33. Evil Thoughts abhorr'd: Or, Heart-Purity

1

Thy power, Lord, is very great,
to change the thoughts of men:
If evil thoughts so hatful be,
O let us loath them then!

2

Lord, who can all his errors see?
O cleanse my heart within
From evil Thoughts; and keep thou me
from all presumptious Sin!

3

O let not sin have power to reign
in me at any time;
And so shall I be free from stain,
and 'scape the greatest crime!

4

Blessed, O blessed, are the Pure,
who Pure are still in Heart,

40

That keep thy Testimonies sure,
and from all sin depart.

5

They're such that cause have to rejoyce,
thy Praises forth to sing;
And unto them new comforts shall
from thee, Lord, daily spring:

6

They pardon'd are, and in thy Love
do evermore remain;
They born are also from above,
and shall with Jesus reign.
