Author: Fanny J. Crosby Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1220 (1886) First Line: Tho' my sins were once like crimson red Lyrics: 1 Tho' my sins were once like crimson red,
To the healing stream my feet were led;
In the precious blood my Saviour shed
He washed me white as snow.
Chorus:
O, my joyful song henceforth shall be,
"'Tis the blood of Jesus cleanseth me,"
Cleanseth, cleanseth,
O, yes, it cleanseth me.
2 At the door of faith I entered in,
And to him confessed my guilt and sin;
With his own dear hand he washed me clean,
He washed me white as snow. [Chorus]
3 Tho' my heart was all I had to give,
Yet he smiled and bade me look and live;
What a calm, sweet peace did I receive!
He washed me white as snow. [Chorus]
4 I will sing his pow'r from death to save,
I will sing his triumph o'er the grave,
I will sing beyond death's chilling wave,
"He washed me white as snow." [Chorus] Topics: Special Department Bible Songs Scripture: Isaiah 1:18 Tune Title: WASHED WHITE AS SNOW
