Dust and ashes, sin and guilt —
Christ, for me thy blood was spilt;
Cleanse thou me from guilt and sin,
Make me pure without, within;
Soul and body, at thy word,
Be to saving health restored.
Flesh and blood, this mortal frame;
Thou wert pleased to wear the same;
Though thy nature was divine,
Thou didst condescend to mine;
let me, for thy mercy’s sake,
Thy divinity partake.
From the ruins of the fall,
Me to grace and glory call:
Me, O Lord my righteousness!
With thine image re-impress;
Thou didst stoop to earth for me;
Raise me up to heaven with thee.
