Ye who know your sins forgiven,And are happy in the Lord,Have you read that gracious promiseWhich is left us in his word?I will sprinkle you with water,I will cleanse you from all sin,Sanctify and make you holy,I will dwell and reign within.

2

Though you have much peace and comfortGreater things you yet may find,—Freedom from unholy tempers,Freedom from the carnal mind.To procure your perfect freedom,Jesus suffered, groaned, and died;On the cross the healing fountainGushes from his wounded side.
