Whiter Than Snow
|
|
How could I do this thing?
|
|
I can't believe what I've done, Lord.
|
|
It doesn't seem like me,
|
|
I can't believe how far I've gone, Lord.
|
|
Lord, I've drifted so far away,
|
|
never realizing day by day.
|
|
Can your hear, hear my cry?
|
|
I so need you in my life.
|
|
How could I let myself, let myself be so deceived, Lord?
|
|
It seems like a million years since the day I first believed, Lord.
|
|
Lord, I've been so away so long.
|
|
Lord, I'm hearin' You, You call me home.
|
|
Now I'm reachin' out to You today
|
|
knowing I deserve to be turned away.
|
|
But that's when, when I heard You say
|
|
when You said:
|
|
"Come now and let us reason together.
|
|
Come now, we can talk it over.
|
|
Though your sin be as red as scarlet,
|
|
I'll wash you whiter than snow.
|
|
I'll wash you whiter than snow."
|
|
You said You'd wash me, Lord, whiter than snow.
|
|
You touched my life
|
|
Mmm when I, I reached out for help, Lord.
|
|
And you forgave my sin,
|
|
Oh when I could not forgive myself, Lord.
|
|
Now where else can I turn but You?
|
|
No one else cares the way You do.
|
|
Oh Lord, I'll walk away from the life I've known
|
|
'cause You called my name and You brought me home
|
|
all because on day I heard, I heard You say to me,
|
|
You said:
|
|
"Come now and let us reason together.
|
|
Come now, we can talk it over.
|
|
Though your sin be as red as scarlet,
|
|
I'll wash you whiter than snow.
|
|
'Cause I wanna be clean,
|
|
Lord, make me clean,
|
|
I need to be clean,
|
|
I wanna be clean before You.
|
|
Lord, wash me whiter than snow.
|
|
Jesus, make me clean,
|
|
You went to the cross so I can be clean.
|
|
You shed Your blood to make me clean,
|
|
I need to be clean before You.
|
|
Lord, wash me whiter than snow,
|
|
Jesus, wash me whiter than snow.
|
|
Spoken: Lord, the Bible says, that if any man be in Christ he is a new creation. Old things have been passed away and all things have become new. But that when we sin, when we fall, there is forgiveness. For the Scripture says, if we will confess our sins that You are faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and cleanse us of all unrighteousness.
|
|
Lord, You sent Your Word, sent it right on time.
|
|
It restored my heart and it healed my mind.
|
|
When I stumbled You picked me off the ground,
|
|
then You turned my world, turned it upside down.
|
|
You gave me hope when my faith was gone
|
|
and You gave me strength, yes, to carry on.
|
|
Then You cast my sin far away and made me clean before You.
|
|
Lord, You washed me whiter than snow,
|
|
You washed me whiter than snow.
|
|
I remember when You said: "Come now and let us reason together.
|
|
Come now, we can talk it over."
|
|
Though my sin be as red as scarlet, Lord,
|
|
You washed me whiter than snow.
|
|
You washed me whiter than snow,
|
|
You washed me whiter than snow.
|
|
And I thank You Jesus, because You washed me whiter than snow.
