1 Complete in Thee! O work divine;
God's all in Thee, O Christ, is mine;
Thy blood hath pardon bought for me,
And I am now complete in Thee.
Refrain:
Yea, justified! Condemned no more!
And sanctified! Made clean and pure!
Thy blood hath pardon bought for me,
And glorified, I too, shall be!
2 Complete in Thee! No more shall sin,
Thy grace hath conquer'd, reign within;
Thy voice shall bid the tempter flee,
And I shall stand complete in Thee. [Refrain]
3 Complete in Thee--each want supplied,
And no good thing to me denied;
Since Thou my portion, Lord, wilt be,
I ask no more, complete in Thee. [Refrain]
4 Dear Saviour! when before Thy bar
All tribes and tongues assembled are,
Among Thy chosen will I be,
At Thy right hand, complete in Thee. [Refrain]
