Advent Hymnals
293. DEEPER YET
Christ in Song,
1.
In the blood from the cross
I have been wash'd from sin;
But to be free from dross
Still I would enter in.
Chorus:
Deeper, yet, deeper yet,
Into the crimson flood;
Deeper yet, deeper yet,
Under the precious blood.
2.
Day by day, hour by hour
Blessings are sent to me;
But for more of His pow'r
Ever my pray'r shall be. [Chorus]
3.
Near to Christ I would live,
Following Him each day;
What I ask He will give,
So then with faith I pray. [Chorus]
4.
Now I have peace, sweet peace,
While in this world of sin;
But to pray I'll not cease
Till I am pure within. [Chorus]
