Psalms 51:7. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean:
"Sprinkle the blood of atonement upon me, give me a sacrificial cleansing, and then I shall be clean."
Psalms 51:7. Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
To my mind, this is a wonderful expression of faith, I do not know of any Scripture that seems more full of holy confidence than this is. David had such a deep sense of his sinfulness that it was a wonderful thing that he should have, side by side with it, such a perfect confidence in the power of God to cleanse him. It is easy enough to say, "I shall be whiter than snow," when we do not realize what scarlet sinners we are, but when the crimson is before us, and we are startled by it, it requires a real and living faith to be able to say to God, "Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow."
