Whiter than Snow


Purify me from my sins,oh God,
and I will be clean;
wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
Oh, give me back my joy again;
you have broken me -
now let me rejoice.
Don't keep looking at my sins,
Remove the stain of my guilt.
Create in me a clean heart, O God,
and renew a right spirit within me.
Do not banish me from your presence,
and don't take your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me again the joy of your salvation,
and make me willing to obey you.

Psalm 51:7-11

  1. With all of the snow this country has had, we should be 'whiter than snow'.... Don't know if we are cleansed though---but at least we are WHITE... ha
