A Clean Heart ~

Lord, create in me a clean heart,
remove the effects of sin
dissolve the worldly pollution
it has been degenerating in.

Treat the sickness of evil,
on Your Word let me feed
till every commandment
I earnestly start to heed.

Give me a heart spotless,
remove damnation’s crust
eradicate the remains
of lingering greed and lust.

Heal my spiritual apathy,
cure the horrible disease
of indifference and idleness
till I no longer do as I please.

Lord, create in me a clean heart,
remove sin’s stubborn stain
let me keep Your every Word
so in You, I’ll always remain!

~~~~~~~~

Psalm 119:9-11

“Wherewithal shall
a young man cleanse his way?
by taking heed thereto
according to thy word.

With my whole heart
have I sought thee:
O let me not wander
from thy commandments.

Thy word have I hid
in mine heart, that I might not
sin against thee.
