Please wash over me like the
Waves of the shore
And cleanse me with forgiveness
Please wash over me
Like the waves on the shore
Open the door
Open the door
Please cleanse me with forgiveness
Please listen, please listen, don’t let me be
Open your arms and enclose me
Wash me with your warmth and love
Cleanse me with forgiveness
Forgive yourself, forgive yourself
What have you done so wrong?
Don’t doubt yourself, trust yourself
Your love has been so long
Cleanse your thoughts and wash away
All the guilt and hurt
Cleanse your thoughts and wash away
The childhood hurt
Which you were taught
That you should nought
Have known
Please believe, please believe love will answer all
The truth with justice compensates and it is there for all
Your right to hide will tell you when your love lets you unfold
So safe that land in heart and hand
So safe that land in heart and hand
So safe that land in heart and hand
Dear God forgive me
Dear God forgive us all
