The Great Exchange

Isaiah 61:10 I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

My filthy rags of countless sin,
Rarely letting light within,
Racing after worldly pleasures,
Flaunting many froward measures,
Seeking peace and joy in vain,
Liking self I did but feign.

My brother's life did testify
To show me that I lived a lie.
The Holy Spirit's hammer crushed
My pride, my lust, and self-will hushed.
On my knees I turned around
As my heart my Saviour found;
Giving me His pure white shawl
For your soul He gave His all.
