Based on Isaiah 1:18 "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be white as snow, though they are like crimson, they shall be white as wool". Luke does a "story-behind-the-song" talk on this song when we travel around to churches.
lyrics
How many times have I fallen
And come so short of Your glory
Followed my own ways and drifted from You
How many times have I stumbled
Bound by the ropes of my sin
With only Your angels to catch me when I fall
I'm amazed at Your love
Your grace and Your mercy
I'm in awe of Your forgiveness and I thank You again
And though my sins are like scarlet
You've washed me white as snow
And though my hands are like crimson
You've washed me white as wool and let me go
And every one of my sins is cast into the deepest sea
And You've forgiven me
And You'll never remember my sins
Never again
Now I'm afraid of nothing
Cos You are here with me
You're my light and my salvation
Who should I fear?
But I can't help feeling guilty
For the times I've let You down
And Jesus I'm sorry
I've hurt You once again
Won't You show me Your love
Your grace and Your mercy
I don't deserve Your forgiveness but I need it again
Cos though my sins are like scarlet
You've washed me white as snow
And though my hands are like crimson
You've washed me white as wool and let me go
And every one of my sins is cast into the deepest sea
And You've forgiven me
And You'll never remember my sins
Never again
How can someone like me talk to someone like You?
I'm poor and I'm weak and I'm nothing like You
But you laid down Your life on that old wooden cross
You paid for my sins and made way for the lost
And You'd do it all again
Just because You love me
More than I can understand
More than I can ever see
And though my sins are like scarlet
You've washed me white as snow
And though my hands are like crimson
You've washed me white as wool and let me go
And every one of my sins is cast into the deepest sea
And You've forgiven me
And You'll never remember my sins
And though my sins are like scarlet
You've washed me white as snow
And though my hands are like crimson
You've washed me white as wool and let me go
And every one of my sins is cast into the deepest sea
And You've forgiven me
And You'll never remember my sins
Never again
