Whiter than the Snow

Verse 1

A fount of cleansing flows so free From that blest mount of Calvary; What virtue in this stream I see, Its healing waters cover me.

Chorus

Whiter than the snow, the beautiful snow, Whiter than the snow He has made me; Whiter than the snow, the beautiful snow, Whiter than the snow He has made me.

Verse 2

My heart a crimson hue was stained, No righteousness in me remained; I could not stem sin’s rushing flow, Till I was whiter than the snow.

Verse 3

’Tis not by works lest one should boast, But by the blessed Holy Ghost; The cleansing blood, by faith I know, Has made me whiter than the snow.

Verse 4

All glory to the Lord most high, Who dwells in all the earth and sky; Who brought redemption to the soul, Prepared our home beyond life’s goal.
