1193. I hear the Saviour say

1 I hear the Saviour say,
"Thy strength indeed is small;
Child of weakness, watch and pray,
Find in me thine all in all."

Chorus:
Jesus paid it all,
All to him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain:
He washed it white as snow.

2 Lord, now indeed I find
Thy pow'r, and thine alone,
Can change the leper's spots,
And melt the heart of stone. [Chorus]

3 Since nothing good have I
Whereby thy grace to claim,
I'll wash my garment white
In the blood of Calvary's Lamb. [Chorus]

4 And when before the throne
I stand in him complete,
I'll lay my trophies down,
All down at Jesus' feet. [Chorus]
