Whiter than the Snow

We sang this song last Sunday during the service. It has wonderful lyrics. It is truly a great mistery of God's love and grace, of the sacrifice He's made to cleanse us and to give us new lives in purity and righteousness. It amazes me...

Whiter than the Snow
(Mike Burns)

Whiter than the snow, purer than the cleanest stream;

Wash me and I’ll be bathed in purity, I long to feel clean.

A robe of righteousness, a robe I could not afford;

My Lord, You paid the price,

Your perfect sacrifice has covered up my shame.

And so I thank You, Jesus for the sweet forgiveness of the cross.

It’s a mystery to amaze even angels,

That when Father looks into my heart,

He sees me now as whiter than the snow.
