Jesus, in whom the Godhead's rays Beam forth with mildest majesty; I see Thee full of truth and grace, And come for all I want to thee. Save me from pride--the plague expel; Jesus, Thine humble self impart: O let Thy mind within me dwell; O give me lowliness of heart. Enter thyself, and cast out sin; Thy spotless purity bestow: Touch me, and make the leper clean; Wash me, and I am white as snow. Sprinkle me, Saviour, with Thy blood, And all Thy gentleness is mine; And plunge me in the purple flood, Till all I am is lost in Thine. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A LETTER by PHILIP JAMES BAILEY SONNET: 18 by RICHARD BARNFIELD BLIND FOLK by CHARLES BAUDELAIRE PSALM 45 by OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE ON LORD GALLOWAY by ROBERT BURNS THIRD BOOK OF AIRS: SONG 1 by THOMAS CAMPION FROM A CAR WINDOW by JOSIE FRAZEE CAPPLEMAN |
