Lord Jesus, I long
to be perfectly whole;
I want Thee forever
to live in my soul.
Break down every idol,
cast out every foe;
Now wash me, and I shall
be whiter than snow.
Lord Jesus, let nothing
unholy remain,
Apply Thine own blood
and extract ev’ry stain;
To get this blest cleansing,
I all things forego—
Now wash me, and I shall
be whiter than snow.
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.
Lord Jesus, for this
I most humbly entreat,
I wait, blessèd 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.
Lord Jesus, Thou seest
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.
The blessing by faith,
I receive from above;
O 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.
