WHITER THAN SNOW
The soul feels bereft and deeply forlorn;
The weight of sin continues to be borne.
The joy and gladness has all but disappeared;
The heart and the Soul cannot be easily cheered.
The heart and Soul must be purged thoroughly;
Dreaded Sin has taken root so very deeply.
A plea must come from our lips to the Lord;
We must plead for total cleansing by God!
There may be pain when the purging begins;
But pain is nothing if the Soul can be clean.
There is a sense of loss if God is not present;
Nothing is worse than feeling sad and vacant!
The Soul must long to be whiter than snow;
Only then can joy and gladness begin to glow.
How our heart must plead with God urgently;
May He cleanse us deeply and thoroughly!
