Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.569

First Line: Lord Jesus, I long to be perfectly whole,

Lord Jesus, I long to be perfectly whole,
I want Thee for ever to live in my soul ;
Break down every idol, cast out every foe---
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

Whiter than snow, yes, whiter than snow,
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

2 Lord Jesus, let nothing unholy remain,
Apply Thine own blood and extract every stain ;
To get this blest cleansing I all things forego----
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

3 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.

4 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.

5 Lord Jesus, Thou seest I patiently wait ;
Come now, and with 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.
