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.Chorus: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. [Chorus]3.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. [Chorus]4.Lord Jesus, thou seest I patiently wait;Come now, and within me a new heart create;To those who have sought thee, then never said'st No;Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. [Chorus]
