Cleansed
Charity Gayle's song 'Cleansed' is a worship anthem celebrating the believer's purification and identity in Christ. The lyrics describe coming to the altar for rest and resurrection, dying daily to live in grace, and feasting on mercy at the Lord's table. The repeated declaration 'I am cleansed, I am washed, I am sanctified' emphasizes spiritual cleansing through Jesus' sacrifice and the Holy Spirit's filling. The song rejoices in being made right with God because Jesus is alive, echoing themes of salvation and sanctification found in passages like Titus 3:5 and 1 Corinthians 6:11.
Here, at the altar, where I run to rest
Where I wait, resurrection, and the touch of your breath
I die now daily, because I've learned to live
In the grace that belongs to, all who are born again
I am cleansed
I am washed
I am sanctified
I am Holy Ghost filled and water baptized
I am right with my God for all time
Cause Jesus my Savior's alive
Here, at the table, where children are fed
We are filled with the mercy of the lamb and the bread
I feast now daily because I've learned to live
In the grace that belongs to all who are born again
I am cleansed
I am washed
I am sanctified
I am Holy Ghost filled and water baptized
I am right with my God for all time
Cause Jesus my Savior's alive
Glory, glory
This is what is called glory
Glory, glory
This is what is called glory
Glory, glory
This is what is called glory
Glory, glory
This is what is called glory
Glory, glory
This is what is called glory
Glory, glory
This is what is called glory
I am cleansed
I am washed
I am sanctified
I am Holy Ghost filled and water baptized
I am right with my God for all time
Cause Jesus my savior
Jesus my savior
Jesus my savior
He's alive
