432. Jesus, thy purity bestow

1 Jesus, thy purity bestow
Through the blood;
The power of perfect cleansing show
Through the blood.
Take every spot of sin away,
Within my heart for ever stay,
Give me full victory every day,
Through the blood.

2 Increase the faith that conquers doubt
Through the blood;
Cast every evil passion out
Through the blood.
Give me the power to master wrong,
Against the foe to march along,
With holy valour make me strong.
Through the blood.

3 Give me the love that never dies,
Through the blood;
That will thy cross and passion prize,
Through the blood.
Help me to conquer Satan’s host,
And keep me faithful at my post,
Anoint me with the Holy Ghost,
Through the blood.
