Faith in Jesus

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1877
Composer: Howard Doane

Gracious Lord

Thou canst make me clean;

Hide not Thy face from me;

Sick and faint

as the le­per came

Jesus

I come to Thee.

Thou canst re­move the plague of sin

Washing my in­most soul;

Jesus

I come with break­ing heart

Help me and make me whole.

Gracious Lord

Thou canst make me clean;

Speak

and my soul shall live;

O my faith will not let Thee go

Till Thou my sin for­give.

Gracious Lord

Thou canst make me clean;

Weary and sad am I;

Bending low at Thy sac­red feet

Hear my re­pent­ant cry;

Faith in Thy Word has led me here

Faith can­not plead in vain;

Lord

I be­lieve; O cleanse me now

Wash me from ev­ery stain.

Gracious Lord

Thou canst make me clean;

Lord

I am plead­ing still;

Now I hear from Thy lips di­vine

Child

thou hast faith—I will;

Joy to my soul

great joy has come

Mourning and tears are o’er;

Sweet are Thy words of love to me

Go thou

and sin no more.
