DEFILED BY SIN, CORRUPT WITHIN
Don Fortner
(Tune:
When I Survey #118 LM)
Defiled
by sin, corrupt within,
All
that I am and do is sin;
In all my vileness, Lord, I come
For
grace and mercy through Your Son.
Wash me
and cleanse me, gracious God,
Through
Jesus' sin-atoning blood;
Sprinkle
my heart, Spirit of grace,
And
give my guilty conscience peace.
Though
I cannot one sin erase,
Or do
one work of righteousness,
By
faith, O Christ, I see, I see,
You
have atonement made for me!
Is it true? My God, am I called?
Has
Christ redeemed me from the fall?
With
faith and love and gratitude,
I consecrate myself to You.
