2. Oh, purify my heart, Lord, wholly; 3. Oh, purify our heart, Lord, wholly;
Empty all of my spirit utterly; Empty all of our spirit utterly;
So pure in heart, I’d love Thee, supremely; So pure in heart, we’d see You solely;
Poor in spirit, the kingdom I’d receive. Poor in spirit, the kingdom we’d receive.

Unload everything from the depth of my being; Lord, make us that people who’d give You the way
Spirit of revelation give me; To bring Your kingdom to earth, we pray;
How blest to decrease, in spirit fully emptied, Your name sanctify; fulfill Your will divine;
To receive Thy vast riches bountif’lly! Quickly come for Your glorious wedding day.

Lord, we’d be that people who’d give You the way

To bring Your kingdom to earth today,
Your name sanctify, fulfill Your will divine,
And hasten Your glorious wedding day.
