White as Snow Lyrics

The people walking in darkness
Have seen a great light
On those living in the land of deep darkness
A light has dawned

For to us a child is born
To us a son is given
And the government
Will be on his shoulders

And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor
Mighty God, Everlasting Father
Prince of Peace

Of the greatness of his government and peace
There will be no end
He will reign on David's throne
And over his kingdom

Establishing and upholding it
With justice and righteousness
From that time on
And forever

Though your sins are like scarlet
They shall be as white as snow
Though they are red as crimson
They shall be like wool

A shoot will come up
From the stump of Jesse;
From his roots a branch will
Bear fruit

The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him
The Spirit of wisdom and of understanding
The Spirit of counsel and of might
The knowledge and fear of the Lord

And he will delight
In the fear
Of the Lord

He will not judge by what he sees
With his eyes
Or decide by what he hears
With his ears

But with righteousness he will
Judge the needy
With justice he will give decisions
For the poor of the earth

Though your sins are like scarlet
They shall be as white as snow
Though they are red as crimson
They shall be like wool

I will thoroughly
Purge away your dross
And remove all
Your impurities

The Lord Almighty
Is the one
You are to regard
As holy

He is the one
You are to fear
He is the one
You are to dread

He will be
A holy place
A stone that causes
People to stumble

And a rock
That makes them fall
And for the people of Jerusalem
He will be a trap and a snare

He will strike the earth
With the rod of his mouth
With the breath of his lips
He will slay the wicked

Though your sins are like scarlet
They shall be as white as snow
Though they are red as crimson
They shall be like wool
