1. Lord Je- sus, I long to be per- fect- ly whole; I want Thee for- ev- er to live in my soul, Break down ev- 'ry i- - dol, cast out ev- 'ry foe; Now wash me and I shall be whit- er than snow. Whit- er than snow, yes, whit- er than snow; Now wash me, and I shall be whit- er than snow.
 
2. Lord Je- sus, look down from Thy throne in the skies, And help me to make a com- plete sac- ri- fice; I give up my- self, _ and what- ev- er I know, Now wash me and I shall be whit- er than snow.
 
3. Lord Je- sus, for this I most hum- bly en- treat, I wait, bless- ed Lord, at Thy cru- ci- fied feet, By faith, for my clean- - sing, I see Thy blood flow, Now wash me and I shall be whit- er than snow.
 
4. Lord Je- sus, Thou see- st I pa- tient- ly wait, Come now, and with- in me a new heart cre- ate; To those who have sought _ Thee, Thou ne- ver said'st ``No,'' Now wash me and I shall be whit- er than snow.
