Fountain of purity opened for sin, Here may the penitent wash and be clean ; Jesus, Thou blessed Redeemer from woe, Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
Whiter than snow, . . . whiter than snow ; . . . Wash me, Redeem - - er, and I shall be whiter than snow.
2. Though I have laboured again and again, All my self-cleansing is utterly vain ; Jesus, Redeemer from sorrow and woe, Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
3. Cleanse Thou the thoughts of my heart, I implore ; Help me Thy light to reflect more and more ; Daily in loving obedience to grow, Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
4. Whiter than snow ! nothing farther I need ; Christ is the Fountain: this only I plead ; Jesus, my Saviour, to Thee will T go---- Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
