Carman – Whiter Than Snow lyrics

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
