1 Lord Jesus, I long to be perfectly whole;
I want thee forever to live in my soul;
Break down ev'ry idol, cast out ev'ry 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 thy 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 Thy crucified feet;
B faith, for my cleansing, I see Thy blood flow;
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Refrain
4 Dear Jesus, thou see'st I patiently wait;
Come now, and within me a new heart create;
To those who have sought thee, thou never saidst no, --
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. [Refrain]
