He’s willing to bless you now;
And he will make you pure within,
He’s willing to bless you now.

Willing to bless, willing to bless,
Willing to bless you now;
He’ll answer your pray’r, your burdens bear,
He’s willing to bless you now.

And he’ll supply your every need,
He’s willing to bless you now. [Refrain]
