lyrics

Wash Me capo 7 (optional G Harp) © Lightning Lucas, 2014

pluck base string, then strum... (do this throughout)
start with entire verse chord progression as intro
Daddy in another dimension, C, walk, Am, Am7
You are the awesome one, C, walk, Gw/highC, G
Bring your kingdom and will to earth C, walk, Am, G
like it is in Heaven. Em, Cwalk, C, C

Give us what we need, (but only what we need), C, walk, Am, Am7
and forgive our sinfulness, C, walk, Gw/highC, G
As we repeatedly try to forgive C, walk, Am, G
those who sin against us. Em, Cwalk, C, C

Wash me, wash me, wash me, C, walk, Am, G x4
Wash me and I'll be clean (both lines x2)

Please don't let us stray, C, walk, Am, Am7
Deliver us from the devil's schemes, C, walk, Gw/highC, G
Help us to be a part of fulfilling C, walk, Am, G
all your hopes and dreams Em, Cwalk, C, C

Let us meet Jesus, C, walk, Am, Am7
Tell us to go and sin no more, C, walk, Gw/highC, G
Help us to see that we are blind and lame, C, walk, Am, G
Open our heart's door. Em, Cwalk, C, C

“Wash me” chorus

Repeat vs 1

Bring your kingdom and will to earth, C, walk, Am, G
like it is in Heaven. Em, Cwalk, C, C
