I hear Thy welcome voice,
|
|
| 1. | I hear Thy welcome voice, |
| | That calls me, Lord, to Thee, |
| | For cleansing in Thy precious blood |
| | That flowed on Calvary. |
| | I am coming, Lord, |
| | Coming now to Thee: |
| | Wash me, cleanse me in the blood |
| | That flowed on Calvary. |
| 2. | Though coming weak and vile, |
| | Thou dost my strength assure; |
| | Thou dost my vileness fully cleanse, |
| | Till spotless all, and pure. |
| 3. | 'Tis Jesus who confirms |
| | The blessed work within, |
| | By adding grace to welcomed grace, |
| | Where reigned the power of sin. |
| 4. | And He the witness gives |
| | To loyal hearts and free, |
| | That every promise is fulfilled, |
| | If faith but brings the plea. |
| 5. | All hail, redeeming blood! |
| | All hail, life-giving grace! |
| | All hail, the gift of Christ our Lord, |
| | Our strength and righteousness. |
