Deeper Yet

In the blood from the cross

I have been washed from sin;

But to be free from dross

Still I would en­ter in.

Deeper yet

deep­er yet

Into the crim­son flood;

Deeper yet

deep­er yet

Under the pre­cious blood.

Day by day

hour by hour

Blessings are sent to me;

But for more of His pow­er

Ever my pray­er shall be.

Near to Christ I would live

Following Him each day;

What I ask He will give;

So then with faith I pray.

Now I have peace

sweet peace

While in this world of sin;

But to pray I’ll not cease

Till I am pure with­in.
