1 Господь, мой Спаситель, Тебя я молю,
Твоей омой кровию душу мою.
Мне чистое сердце пошли от Тебя
И снега белее соделай меня.

Припев:
Снега белей, да, снега белей;
Омой меня, стану я снега белей.

2 Господь, мой Спаситель, внемли Ты мольбе
И Сам освяти меня в жертву Себе.
Всецело Тебе отдаю я себя.
Ах, снега белее соделай меня! [Припев]

3 И с верою я принимаю Твой дар;
Очищено сердце любовью Твоей.
Я знаю, молитве Спаситель мой внял
И сделал нечистое снега белей. [Припев]

In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries. Go to person page >
