294   COVER WITH HIS LIFE




[V1]


Look upon Jesus, sinless is He;
Father, impute His life unto me,
My life of scarlet, my sin and woe,
Cover with His life, whiter than snow.

[C]
Cover with His life, whiter than snow,
Fullness of His life then shall I know;
My life of scarlet, my sin and woe,
Cover with His life, whiter than snow.

[V2]
Deep are the wounds transgression has made;
Red are the stains, my soul is afraid,
O to be covered, Jesus, with Thee,
Safe from the law that now judgeth me!

[C]
Cover with His life, whiter than snow,
Fullness of His life then shall I know;
My life of scarlet, my sin and woe,
Cover with His life, whiter than snow.

[V3]
Longing the joy of pardon to know,
Jesus holds out a robe white as snow;
“Lord, I accept it! Leaving my own,
Gladly I wear Thy pure life alone.”

[C]
Cover with His life, whiter than snow,
Fullness of His life then shall I know;
My life of scarlet, my sin and woe,
Cover with His life, whiter than snow.

[V4]
Reconciled by His death for my sin,
Justified by His life pure and clean,
Sanctified by obeying His word,
Glorified when returneth my soul.

[C]
Cover with His life, whiter than snow,
Fullness of His life then shall I know;
My life of scarlet, my sin and woe,
Cover with His life, whiter than snow.
