Washed And Cleansed

by Elisha A. Hoffman

O wonderful depth of God's wonderful love!
Its fulness I know, and its sweetness I prove;
Christ brought me such wealth, such a treasure of peace,
My soul is o'er whelmed in a sea of pure bliss.

O wonderful heights of God's wonderful love,
Enthrilling my soul with the joy from above!
Such rest as the Lord on his saints doth bestow,
No sinner unsaved or unpardoned can know.

O wonderful breadths of this river of love!
From hence I would never a moment remove,
Its waters I'll drink and I'll here make my rest;
For leaning on Christ I am perfectly blest.

Chorus

For my Savior has washed me in the fountain of his blood.
He has washed me and cleansed me in the flowing crimson flood,
Hallelujah, he saves me! I am reconciled to God!
Let me praise him for ever, Amen!
