Lyrics

While thou dost our souls restore (Ps. 23:3)
To their unsinning state,
Give us evil to abhor, (Ps. 97:10, Ps. 119:104, Rom. 12:9)
And every idol hate; (Ezek. 37:23)
Nature’s filthiness remove, (Ezek. 37:23)
Filthiness of self and pride,
Only thee that we may love, (Deut. 6:5, Deut. 10:12, Deut. 11:13, Deut. 13:3, Deut. 30:6, Matt. 22:37, Mark 12:30, Luke 10:27)
And pure ’till death abide.
