THIS IS MY JOY AND CONFIDENCE

Don Fortner

(Tune: O For A Thousand Tongues #46 CM)

Lord Jesus, Fountain of all grace,

Revive this heart of stone;

Reveal to me Your smiling face;

Embrace me as Your own.

Oh, let me hear Your voice, Beloved,

Declare that I am Yours,

The purchase of Your precious blood,

Saved and forever Yours!

Oh, drive away my doubts and fears,

My shameful unbelief!

Correct my sins and dry my tears;

From satan give relief!

In spite of all I am and do,

I'll look from self away

To Jesus Christ, my Substitute,

Who lived and died for me.

This is my joy and confidence,

Not that I have done good,

But that Christ is my Righteousness

Before the holy God!
