Lyics

I hear thy welcome voice 

That calls me, Lord, to thee, 

For cleansing in thy precious blood 

That flowed on Cal-va-ry. CHORUS



CHORUS

I am com-ing, Lord,

Com-ing now to thee:

Wash me, cleanse me in the blood

That flowed on Cal-va-ry.



Though coming weak and vile,

Thou dost my strength assure;

Thou wilt my vileness fully cleanse,

And make my conscience pure. CHORUS



'Tis Jesus calls me on

To perfect faith and love,

To perfect hope and peace and trust,

For earth and heaven above. CHORUS



'Tis Jesus who confirms

The blessed work within,

By adding grace to welcomed grace,

Where reigned the power of sin. CHORUS



And he assurance gives

To loyal hearts and true,

That every promise is fulfilled

To those who hear and do. CHORUS
