1 Drawn to the cross, which Thou hast blessed
With healing gifts for souls distressed,
To find in Thee my life, my rest,
Christ Crucified, I come.
With healing gifts for souls distressed,
To find in Thee my life, my rest,
Christ Crucified, I come.
2 Thou knowest all my griefs and fears,
Thy grace abused, my misspent years;
Yet now to Thee, with contrite tears,
Christ Crucified, I come.
Thy grace abused, my misspent years;
Yet now to Thee, with contrite tears,
Christ Crucified, I come.
3 Wash me, and take away each stain;
Let nothing of my sin remain;
For cleansing, though it be through pain,
Christ Crucified, I come.
Let nothing of my sin remain;
For cleansing, though it be through pain,
Christ Crucified, I come.
