Whiter than the snow, dear Jesus, make me—
Wash me in the blood of the Lamb;
In a closer union, Savior, take me—
Wash me in the blood of the Lamb.
Refrain
Oh, the precious blood of Jesus cleanses,
Whiter than the snow, yes, whiter than the snow;
Glory to His name, He saves completely—
Wash me in the blood of the Lamb.
Jesus died for me on Calv’ry’s mountain—
Wash me in the blood of the Lamb;
There He opened wide a cleansing fountain—
Wash me in the blood of the Lamb.
Refrain
Form within me, Lord, a new creation—
Wash me in the blood of the Lamb;
Let me know Thy great and full salvation—
Wash me in the blood of the Lamb.
