Whiter Than Snow Lyrics & Chords

By James L. Ni­chol­son & An­ders C. Rut­ström

(G)Lord Jesus, I (D)long to be (G)perfectly whole;

I want Thee (D)forever to (G)live in my soul.

Break down (C)every idol, (G)cast out every foe;

Now (D)wash me, (G)and I shall be whiter than snow.



Chorus

(D)Whiter than (G)snow, yes, whiter than snow.

Now wash (C)me, (G)and I (D)shall be (G)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.
