Ezekiel 36:36: Good is the saying of my Lord
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Good is the saying of my Lord;
I trust Thy sanctifying word,
To every pardon'd sinner sure:
The Holy Ghost, the water dean
Shall surely make me pure within,
From all my sins and idols pure:
Thou wilt what Thou hast spoken, do,
My nature change, my heart renew.
And breathe Thy Spirit into my breast;
I then shall always faithful prove,
Fulfil Thy law of perfect love.
And one with God for ever rest.
