Wellsprings of Rest
Spotless and Clean
by Jacob Dunbar
"And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God." 1 Corinthians 6:11
"knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot." (1 Peter 1:18-19)
Forgiveness of sins
Removal of shame
He pierces my heart
His word so keen
I want to be Holy
Spotless and clean
First you must die
To be born again
But I’m already dead
So what does that mean
Please God make me Holy
Spotless and clean
I try and I try
I fail and I fail
Denial of self
Religious machine
How to be Holy
Spotless and clean
With all my might
I abstain from delight
Outward behavior
A fake figurine
Maybe I’m Holy
Spotless and clean
Again my strength fails
I can’t keep this up
Who will deliver
I need a vaccine
Who can be Holy
Spotless and clean
I am tired and weary
Destined to misery
Is this good news
Tradition, routine
No one is Holy
Spotless and clean
When I think all is lost
He shows me the cost
Is paid to the full
Release of the lien
He made me holy
Spotless and clean
His cross is my cross
His death was my death
I no longer live
He did intervene
Now I am Holy
Spotless and clean
His perfect obedience
Success and success
No more self-effort
He supplies gasoline
Once for all Holy
Spotless and clean
With all of His might
I taste His delight
I am so alive
A tree bright green
No effort I’m Holy
Spotless and clean
He is my strength
His life is my life
He has delivered
He is the vaccine
To make all Holy
Spotless and clean
Filled with energy
Destined for synergy
Such good news
He made me His queen
Jesus you’re Holy
Spotless and clean
