Text: | Cleansed from Sin |

Tune: | [A sinner lost amid the gloom] |
Composer: | Wm. M. Morris |
1 A sinner lost amid the gloom
That darker, deeper grew,
Till low I heard my Saviour’s voice,
And well its tones I knew:
He found me helpless, weak and faint,
He bade me look and live;
I told him all, he smiles and said,
I freely all forgive.
Refrain:
Cleansed from sin, I’m cleansed from sin,
Washed in the crimson tide
That flows at the cross, the precious cross,
Where once my Saviour died.
2 A sinner lost: with heedless step
The downward path I trod,
A rebel then, but now a child,
A happy child of God:
I lean confiding on his arm,
He calms my every fear;
I walk with him in pastures green,
By fountains cool and clear. [Refrain]
3 A sinner lost: but saved by grace;
Oh, wondrous grace divine,
That stooped to life me from the dust,
And saved a soul like mine!
My heart is full of grateful song,
I sing his love and power
Who clothes me in his righteousness,
And keeps me hour by hour. [Refrain]
