Be of sin

the double cure, Cleanse me from its guilt and power. AMEN.

2 Not the labors of my hands
Can fulfil Thy law's demands;
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears for ever flow,
All for sin could not atone;
Thou must save, and Thou alone.

3 Nothing in my hand I bring, Simply to Thy cross I cling; Naked, come to Thee for dress,

Helpless, look to Thee for grace; Foul, I to the fountain fly; Wash me, Saviour, or I die.

4 While I draw this fleeting breath, When my eyelids close in death, When I soar to worlds unknown, See Thee on Thy judgment throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

Let me hide myself in Thee.

Rev. Augustus M. Toplady, 1776: verse 4, line 2, alt. by Rev. Thomas Cotterill, 1815
