| 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.
 Refrain 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 ev’ry stain;
 To get this blest cleansing, I all things forego—
 Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
 Refrain 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.
 Refrain 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.
 Refrain 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.
 Refrain 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.
