Closed are its gates to sin;
Naught that defileth,
Naught that defileth,
Can ever enter in.
2 Saviour, I come to Thee!
O Lamb of God, I pray,
Cleanse me and save me,
Cleanse me and save me,
Wash all my sins away.
3 Lord, make me, from this hour,
Thy loving child to be;
Kept by Thy power,
Kept by Thy power,
From all that grieveth Thee:
4 Till in the snowy dress
Of Thy redeemed I stand,
Faultless and stainless,
Faultless and stainless,
Safe in that happy land! Topics: Children's Hymns Used With Tune: CITY BRIGHT
