Jeremiah 17:14: Good Lord, for Thy own goodness sake
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
Good Lord, for Thy own goodness sake,
The sin out of my nature take, /
And cleansed from all impurity,
And still besprinkled with Thy blood,
In real holiness renew'd
My soul shall humbly rise, a temple meet for Thee.
