I need His cleansing blood, I know,
  Now I’m coming home;
O wash me whiter than the snow;
  Lord, I’m coming home.
I need His cleansing blood, I know,

O wash me whiter than the snow;
  Lord, I’m coming home.

It reminds of getting back to my Creator. This world offers me nothing. I may enjoy it today but tomorrow it is something else, lost in sin. When I hear or sing this song, I feel like the Holy Spirit is whispering to me, "you have wasted many precious years get back home." It showers me with an oportunity of dwelling and enjoying GOD's commandments. May this song bless you as well as you sing it with me.
