stanzas 4-6 of Gadsby #306 Lord, Thou canst make me clean
4 Brethren, in a state so sad,
When temptations seize us,
When our hearts we feel thus bad,
Let us look to Jesus.
He that hung upon the cross,
For his people bleeding,
now in heaven sits, for us
Always interceding.
5 Vengeance, when the Saviour died,
Quitted the believer;
Justice cried, "I'm satisfied,
Now, henceforth, for ever."
"It is finished", said the Lord,
In his dying minute;
Holy Ghost, repeat the word,
Full salvation's in it.
6 Leprous soul, press through the crowd
In thy foul condition,
Struggle hard, and call aloud
On the great Physician.
Wait till thy disease he cleanse,
Begging ,trusting, cleaving;
When, and where, and by what means,
To his wisdom leaving. --J.Hart
