Listen from:
SA 51:7{But snow is whiter than anything else! Especially if you saw it glittering in the sunshine on the top of a high mountain, where no dust can ever reach it. Mortal eyes have seen something as white as snow, for the raiment of the angel of the Resurrection was "white as snow"; and the shining raiment of the Lord Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration was "exceeding white as snow." But what can be made "whiter than snow"? "Wash me and I shall be whiter than snow" if God washes me. But water will not do this, and tears will not do it. Only one thing can do it, but that does it surely and thoroughly. "The blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin." This is the fountain opened for sin and for uncleanness; and ever since the precious blood was shed, it has always been open.
Yes, "even until now!" Then let us press
With free and willing feet
Along the King's highway of holiness,
Until we gain the street
O golden crystal, praising purely when
We see our pardoning Lord; forgiven until then!
