Text: | Whiter than Snow |

Tune: | FISCHER |
Composer: | William G. Fischer |
1 Lord Jesus, I long to be perfectly whole;
I want You forever to live in my soul.
Break down every idol; cast out every foe–
Now wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.
Refrain:
Whiter than snow, yes, whiter than snow;
Now wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.
2 Lord Jesus, look down from Your throne in the skies,
And help me to make a complete sacrifice.
I give up myself, and whatever I know–
Now wash me and I shall be whiter than snow. [Refrain]
3 Lord Jesus, for this I most humbly entreat;
I wait, blessed Lord, at Your crucified feet.
By faith, for my cleansing I see Your blood flow–
Now wash me and I shall be whiter than snow. [Refrain]
4 Lord Jesus, before You I patiently wait;
Come now, and within me a new heart create.
To those who have sought You, You never said "No"–
Now wash me and I shall be whiter than snow. [Refrain]
