Prayer for Entire Purification. (649) Forever here my rest shall be, Close to thy bleeding side; 'Tis all my hope and all my plea, "For me the Savior died." 2 My dying Savior and my God, Fountain for guilt and sin, Sprinkle me ever with thy blood, And cleanse and keep me clean. 3 Wash me and make me thus thine own, Wash me, and mine thou art! Wash me, but not my feet alone, My hands, my head, my heart! 4 Th' atonement of thy blood apply Till faith to sight improve, Till hope in full fruition die, And all my soul be love. Charles Wesley, 1740.
