How could I do this thing   I can't believe what I've done, Lord   Lord, I've drifted so far away   Never realizing day by day   Can You 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   Now, I'm hearin' You, You call me home   Lord, 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   Through your sin be as red as scarlet   I'll wash you whiter than snow   I'll wash you whiter than snow     You touched my life   When I, I reached our for help, Lord   And You forgave my sin   Oh, when I could not forgive, 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 one 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   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 could 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     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, set it right on time   It restored my heart and it healed my mind   Your Word, sent it right on time   It restored my heart and it healed my mind   When I stumbled You picked me up 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   Lord, You washed me whiter than snow   I remember when You said     Come now and let us reason together   Come now and we can talk it over   Though my sin be as red as scarlet   Lord, You washed me whiter than snow   Lord, You washed me whiter than snow   Lord, You washed me whiter than snow   And I thank You, Jesus, because You washed me whiter than snow    these lyrics are submitted by Anonymous
