Thy mercy is my only need,
Confession now I make;
Thy precious blood is all I plead,
And ev'ry sin forsake.
Chorus:
Purify my heart,
Cleanse its inmost part,
Grace and truth impart,
O purify my hear.t
Ashamed of sin I come to Thee
With tears and shame I bow;
I know Thy blood can set me free,
Lord, grant forgiveness now. Chorus
Be gracious unto me, O Lord,
As sin I now confess;
Thy Word has been a piercing sword,
O haste my soul to bless.
Thy precious Word I do believe,
Its words are clear and pure;
O let me now Thy grace receive,
And make Thy calling sure.
Restore salvation's joy to me,
Up hold me by Thy pow'r;
O let my hear rejoice in Thee,
And keep me ev'ry hour.
