1 Touch and cleanse me, blessed Savior,
I am weary of my sin;
I am longing for Thy favor,
Longing to be pure within.
Touch and cleanse me, touch and cleanse me,
Listen to my feeble cry,
Touch and cleanse me, touch and cleanse me,
Jesus, save me or I die.

2 Touch and cleanse me, blessed Savior,
Humbly now my guilt I own;
Oh, bestow thy pard'ning favor!
Thou canst save me, Thou alone.
Touch and cleanse me, touch and cleanse me,
Listen to my feeble cry,
Touch and cleanse me, touch and cleanse me,
Jesus, save me or I die.

3 Touch and cleanse me, blessed Savior,
I am poor, and weak, and blind;
Grant me now Thy loving favor!
Let me now salvation find.
Touch and cleanse me, touch and cleanse me,
Listen to my feeble cry,
Touch and cleanse me, touch and cleanse me,
Jesus, save me or I die.

4 Thou dost cleanse me, blessed Savior,
Light is streaming from above;
Now I feel Thy pard'ning favor!
Oh, my soul is full of love.
Thou dost cleanse me, Thou dost cleanse me,
Thous hast heard my feeble cry,
Thou dost cleanse me, Thou dost cleanse me,
Glory be to God on high.
