Whiter Than Snow

Lord Jesus I long to be perfectly whole;
I want Thee forever to live in my soul.
break down every idle, cast out every foe;
Now wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.
 Whiter than snow, yes whiter than snow.
Now wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.
 Lord Jesus let nothing unholy remain,
Apply Thine own blood and extract every stain;
To get this blest cleansing, I all things forego-
Now wash me and I shall be whiter than snow. 
 Whiter than snow, yes whiter than snow.
Now wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.
Lord Jesus for this I most humbly entreat,
I wait, blessed Lord at Thy crucified feet.
By faith for my cleansing, I see Thy blood flow,
Now wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.
Whiter than snow, yes whiter than snow.
Now wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.
 The blessing by faith, I receive from above;
Oh glory! My soul is made perfect in love;
My prayer has prevailed, and this moment I know,
The blood is applied, I am whiter than snow!
