Hymn 104

Not the malicious or profane, The wanton or the proud, Nor thieves, nor sland'rers, shall obtain Tue kingdom of our God.

Surprising ! and such were we By nature and by sin, Heirs of immortal misery, Unholy and unclean.

But we are washed in Jesus' blood, We're pardoned through his name; And the good Spirit of our God Has our frame.

O for a power To keep thy just commands We would defile our hearts no more, No more pollute our hands.
