CLEANSE ME
CLEANSE THE FILTH WITHIN MY HEART,
GRANT TO ME A BRAND NEW START
CLEANSE, OH CLEANSE MY BROKENNESS,
RELIEVE ME FROM ALL DOUBT AND STRESS.
CLEANSE MY SPIRIT, MAKE IT PURE
GIVE ME STRENGTH LORD, TO ENDURE
ALL OF LIFE'S UNENDING SCHEMES
ALLOW ME LORD, TO REACH MY DREAMS
CLEANSE MY THOUGHTS AND GRANT TO ME
WORDS WITH SUCH SIMPLICITY
THAT ALL WHO READ WILL UNDERSTAND
YOUR SACRIFICE LORD, AND TAKE YOUR HAND.
CLEANSE ME TOTALLY, MY LORD,
WASH ME CLEAN IN YOUR PRECIOUS BLOOD.
ACCEPTABLE MAKE ME UNTO THEE
SAVE ME THROUGH ALL ETERNITY.
O MY LORD, WHAT MAGNIFICENT JOY
YOUR SALVATION DOES EMPLOY
BOWING HUMBLY AT THE MERCY SEAT
WORSHIPING AT MY SAVIOR'S FEET.

PSALM 51: 10 ~ 12
CREATE IN ME A CLEAN HEART, O GOD;
AND RENEW A RIGHT SPIRIT WITHIN ME.
CAST ME NOT AWAY FROM THY PRESENCE;
AND TAKE NOT THY HOLY SPIRIT FROM ME.
RESTORE UNTO ME THE JOY OF THY SALVATION;
AND UPHOLD ME WITH THY FREE SPIRIT. |
