Bid all unrighteousness depart.
Oh! let Thy Holy Spirit’s light,
And Thine own heavenly radiance bright,
O’erflow my spirit like a flood,
Eternal Source of every good!
Thus to my cleansed and contrite heart
Thy heavenly riches, Lord, impart;
And let Thy Wisdom, Truth, and Grace
Take root within the barren place.
Then shall I tell in grateful song
