COME, thou omniscient Son of man,By A Collection of Hymns C.M. 1 COME, thou omniscient Son of man, Display thy sifting power; Come with thy Spirit's winnowing fan, And throughly purge thy floor.
2 The chaff of sin, the accursed thing, Far from our souls be driven! The wheat into thy garner bring, And lay us up for heaven. 3 Look through us with thy eyes of flame, The clouds and darkness chase; And tell me what by sin I am, And what I am by grace. 4 Whate'er offends thy glorious eyes, Far from our hearts remove; As dust before the whirlwind flies, Disperse it by thy love. 5 Then let us all thy fulness know, From every sin set free; Saved, to the utmost saved below, And perfectly like thee.
