I am coming to the cross;
I am poor, and weak, and blind
I am counting all but dross;
I shall full salvation find.

Humbly at Thy cross I bow;
Save me, Jesus, save me now.

Long has evil reigned within;
Jesus sweetly speaks to me,
"I will cleanse you from all sin."

Friends, and time, and earthly store;
Soul and body Thine to be,
Wholly Thine forevermore.
