Hymn Context Compare
Wash and keep me white as snow,
Come in and dwell with me;
How from death the Lord our king
start
Death was con­quered once for­ev­er!
And safe be­neath Thy spread­ing wing,
For Thou hast died that I might live;
Freely, free­ly, free­ly;
Freely, free­ly, free­ly;
On Time no long­er lean;
Each shall re­nounce his id­ol god,
We with shame our sin would own;
And let a un­ion to the Lord
Christ is ris­en from the dead!
And gra­cious­ly hath helped me.
Alleluia!
Pardon of our sins re­new;
For Thee once more my soul doth yearn.
And may the life which Thou hast spared,
Forgive the course that we have run,

hence­forth

Bright and beau­ti­ful for Thee.
Come in and dwell with me.
Rose hence­forth no more to die.
Yet ev­er one through be­ing twain,
A light is shin­ing ’mid the gloom
That all I want I find in Thee.
My Sav­ior and my God!
Freely, free­ly, free­ly.
Freely, free­ly, free­ly.
From earth’s af­fect­ions wean:
“My grace, a flow­ing stream, pro­ceeds
May we live to Thee alone.
The Gos­pel shines to give you light,
Death or hell shall us en­thrall;
Help me on each oc­ca­sion,
But the gate of life im­mor­tal;
With eter­ni­ty in view:
Direct my way, my paths de­cide;
end
Thyself our suc­cor and our stay.
