When I set my mind on things below,
My sin resurrects and I see my fault.
When my eyes are set on You, Jesus,
My sin is no more, for You forgive my sins.
I love the Lord, what more can I say?
How can one not love the Lord?
My desires are lust, but Your will is pure;
I am a sinner, but You graft me in contrary to nature.
You supernaturally change me;
In You there is no sin, so I dwell in You.
Cleanse me by Your Word that I may be clean;
Wash me with the pure water of Your Word;
It takes upon my curse to make me clean.
Surely I deserve death, but Your Son died for me;
I consider myself dead to sin, and joined to You;
My life is not my own, for You bought me with a redemption price.
You tasted death for me that I would not die;
When I sleep, I know You will be there;
How can one not love the Lord?
For my God is for me.
