John 13:10: If bathed in Thine atoning blood
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)
If bathed in Thine atoning blood
Am I not every whit made clean,
Completely justified with God,
Redeem'd from all the guilt of sin?
My conscience is no more defiled,
Sprinkled and purified my heart,
I know my Father reconciled,
I know that Thou my Saviour art.
I'hy Spirit, Lord, the water pure
Together with Thy blood applied.
Hath made my peace and pardon sure,
Hath plunged me in the mingled tide:
My care is now to wash my feet.
And if I humbly walk in Thee
Sin I need never more repeat.
Or lose my faith and purity.
