Whiter than the Snow

Author: B. E. W. Meter: 8.8.8.8.10.9.10.9 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: A fount of cleansing flows so free Refrain First Line: Whiter than the snow, the beautiful snow Lyrics: 1 A fount of cleansing flows so free From that blest mount of Calvary; What virtue in this stream I see, Its healing waters cover me. Refrain: Whiter than the snow, the beautiful snow, Whiter than the snow He has made me; Whiter than the snow, the beautiful snow, Whiter than the snow He has made me. 2 My heart a crimson hue was stained, No righteousness in me remained; I could not stem sin’s rushing flow, Till I was whiter than the snow. [Refrain] 3 ’Tis not by works lest one should boast, But by the blessed Holy Ghost; The cleansing blood, by faith I know, Has made me whiter than the snow. [Refrain] 4 All glory to the Lord most high, Who dwells in all the earth and sky; Who brought redemption to the soul, Prepared our home beyond life’s goal.
