"Remove from me the way of lying... I will run the way of Thy commandments, when Thou shalt enlarge my heart" (Psalm 119:29, 32). "Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us" (1 Corinthians 5:7).
Remove from me untruthful things,
Intruding, Lord, into Your place.
Enlarge my heart, my King of kings,
By purging from me this disgrace.
Now purge my heart, Lord, from its leaven,
For Christ, my true Passover Lamb,
So worthy of all praise in heaven,
And worthy, too, of all I am.
O Lord, since You were sacrificed
To take from me sin's penalty,
Now purge my heart, Lord Jesus Christ,
And thus enlarge Your place in me.
