Lord, may Thy blood now cleanse me,
Wash all my sins away,
That with Thy Holy Spirit
Thou may anoint, I pray.
My service, I confess, Lord,
Is failure-full and weak;
The filling of Thy Spirit
To live for Thee I seek.
Wash all my sins away,
That with Thy Holy Spirit
Thou may anoint, I pray.
My service, I confess, Lord,
Is failure-full and weak;
The filling of Thy Spirit
To live for Thee I seek.
Oh, from myself deliver,
From all its misery;
I’d henceforth be forever
Completely filled with Thee.
From all its misery;
I’d henceforth be forever
Completely filled with Thee.

Oh, Lord, how dry my heart is,
It yearns and pants for Thee;
The filling of Thy Spirit
Is now my fervent plea.
Within the smitten Rock, Lord,
I would entirely hide;
Pour thru Thy living water,
Till I am satisfied.

How cold my heart has been, Lord,
How slow obeying Thee;
So fill me with Thy Spirit,
I’ll ne’er rebellious be.
I lie upon Thy altar
And dare not move away;
Oh, may Thy flame descending
Consume my all, I pray.
How slow obeying Thee;
So fill me with Thy Spirit,
I’ll ne’er rebellious be.
I lie upon Thy altar
And dare not move away;
Oh, may Thy flame descending
Consume my all, I pray.

Oh, may Thy Cross within me
Deepen its work and burn
In me enlarge Thy measure,
And me to ashes turn.
Oh, may Thy Spirit fill me
Each day more than before,
And may Thy living water
On me and thru me pour.
Deepen its work and burn
In me enlarge Thy measure,
And me to ashes turn.
Oh, may Thy Spirit fill me
Each day more than before,
And may Thy living water
On me and thru me pour.

to remove any impurities from our being. Have Your way, Lord, to purify us and empty us out. We do not want to remain the same. We do not want to keep our scent and be like an unturned cake. Oh Lord, we believe into You, we love You, we want to live Christ, and we want to bear testimony of Christ to others. May we receive all things, matters, and situations around us as from God's hand.

Only a man who knew and loved the Lord so deeply and suffered unimaginably could have penned such rich, meaningful words.

We sang this hymn this morning in our prayer meeting. As Christians we may know the effectiveness of the cross, but do we know that any work done in us is by the Spirit of Jesus Christ? So the first thing that happens is that the Spirit speaks and convicts us. Then we, as followers of Him, are willing to go to the cross. The cross then delivers us from our self life, that is the old man. It sounds so simple but many refuse to take the cross. It is a narrow way!

Oh Lord, do deliver me as I still struggle to live by myself. Cleanse me from the misery of my old-man. Completely get me on the part of living wholly for Thee! Lord, I cry here and now!
