 1  Savior, I by faith am touching

       Thee, the source of every good;

    Virtue now, by faith am claiming,

       Through the cleansing of Thy blood.

 

Touching Thee, new life is glowing

   By Thy Spirit's burning flame;

Cleansing, purging, Spirit filling,

   Glory to Thy Holy Name!

 

 2  Touching Thee in faith, I take Thee

       In Thy riches full and free;

    All I am I open to Thee,

       All Thou art Thou giv'st to me.

 

Touching Thee, new life is glowing

   By Thy Spirit's burning flame;

Cleansing, purging, Spirit filling,

   Glory to Thy Holy Name!

 

 3  Touching now Thine outstretched scepter,

       O most mighty King of kings;

    Of Thy fulness now receiving,

       High I mount on eagle wings.

 

Touching Thee, new life is glowing

   By Thy Spirit's burning flame;

Cleansing, purging, Spirit filling,

   Glory to Thy Holy Name!

 

 4  Grace and virtue, strength and wisdom,

       All my need, by Thee supplied;

    Keep me touching, keep me claiming,

       Keep me ever at Thy side.

 

Touching Thee, new life is glowing

   By Thy Spirit's burning flame;

Cleansing, purging, Spirit filling,

   Glory to Thy Holy Name!
