The Morning Star ‎#112

112. Whiter than snow

1 I am sinful, Lord, to Thee,
In my anguish I would flee;
To the fountain let me go,
Make me whiter than the snow.

2 Blind and lost I call for aid,
Let Thy hand on me be laid;
Only Thou canst, Lord, I know,
Make me whiter than the snow.

3 Cleanse me in Thy precious blood,
Love's pure crimson streaming flood;
Robes of brightness, Lord, bestow,
Make me whiter than the snow.
