318. Perfect, Perfect

1 O God, we pray to be like Thee,
Pure, true and holy night and day,
All filled with love and purity,
And walking in the perfect way.

Refrain:
Perfect, perfect, Lord as Thou!
Cleansed from all sin!
Hallelujah! Christ doth now
Make His throne within.

2 O purge each heart from ev'ry sin
And take it for Thy throne to be
And let Thy Spirit reign within
And ever keep us true to Thee. [Refrain]

3 Let truth's light shine upon our way,
As thro' this evil world we go,
Fill us with love each passing day,
And in Thy favor let us grow. [Refrain]
