MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR PURGING MY DEFILEMENT

Which destroys me along personal weakness
Whenever I yield to instruments of unrighteousness…
Willingly now, I pursue after Your holiness.
Thank You for purging my defilement caused by haughtiness
Which mars me along ignorance and foolishness
Whenever I think highly of myself despite carnality’s unworthiness…
Worshipfully now, I submit to Your leadership’s faithfulness.
Thank You for purging my defilement caused by selfishness
Which drowns me along enticements of lustfulness
Whenever I succumb to vanities’ deceitfulness…
Wisely now, I come to Your throne of graciousness.
Thank You for purging my defilement caused by wickedness
Which tramples me along evil destructiveness
Whenever I fall to temptations’ perilousness…
Watchfully now, I depend on Your strength’s firmness.
Thank You for purging my defilement caused by worldliness
Which invites me along materialism’s nothingness
Whenever I covet earthly gains’ bountifulness…
Wearily now, I cling to Your divine care’s wealth-wellness.
Thank You for purging my defilement caused by filthiness
Which drives me along corruption’s fatal business
Whenever I immerse myself into pride’s saturating perverseness…
Winningly now, I desire You and delight in Your loving kindness.
