Matthew 15:20: Lord, on Thy promise I rely

Religion

Lord, on Thy promise I rely,
From all my filth to purify,
To pour Thy Spirit into my heart,
And make mine unbelief depart:
Thy blood which cleanses from all sin
Shall wash mine inmost nature clean,
Spiritualize my spotless mind,
Nor leave one evil thought behind,
