- 1Fear not, little flock,Says the Savior divine;The Father has willed that the kingdom be thine;O soil not your garments with sin here below;My sheep and my lambs must be whiter than snow.Whiter than snow,(Whiter than the snow, I long to be, dear Savior,)Whiter than snow,(Whiter than the snow, I long to be,)Whiter than snow,(Whiter than the snow, I long to be, dear Savior,)Whiter than snow(Whiter than the snow, yes, Whiter than the snow.)
- 2Far whiter than snow,And as fair as the day,For Christ is the fountain to wash guilt away;O give Him, poor sinner, that burden of thine,And enter the fold with the ninety and nine.Whiter than snow,(Whiter than the snow, I long to be, dear Savior,)Whiter than snow,(Whiter than the snow, I long to be,)Whiter than snow,(Whiter than the snow, I long to be, dear Savior,)Whiter than snow(Whiter than the snow, yes, Whiter than the snow.)
- 3Ride over temptation and cease your alarms:Your Shepherd is Jesus, your refuge His arms;He'll never forsake you, a Brother and Friend,But love you and save you in worlds without end.Whiter than snow,(Whiter than the snow, I long to be, dear Savior,)Whiter than snow,(Whiter than the snow, I long to be,)Whiter than snow,(Whiter than the snow, I long to be, dear Savior,)Whiter than snow(Whiter than the snow, yes, Whiter than the snow.)
