Wash me in water
That flows from your side
Bathe me in blood that
That you gave when you died
Carry me over
To the other side
When it's my time, Lord
When it's my time
But until then
Can you hold my hand?
Don't know what I'm doing
And I don't understand
Help me!
I'm calling your name
Oh, hold me close and ease my pain
Life is hard
And love's the same
Know when I hide
From my guilt and the shame
So could I just lay my head
Upon your breast?
Oh, but don't let me die, no, no
Just let me rest
I'm not a saint
But I'm not the worst
Oh, yes I'm a sinner
But I'm not the last nor the first
Deep down inside
Oh, you know that I'm good
And I've just done the best line
Done the best that I could
Oh, I love you, yeah
Said I love you out loud
I'm your child, Lord
And of that I'm so proud, yeah
So wrap me up
In your holy shroud
Take me home, oh
But just don't take me now
Wash me in water
That flows from your side
And bathe me in blood
That you gave when you died
Carry me over
To the other side
When it's my time, Lord
When it's my time
Oh, when it's my time, Lord
When it's my time, mmm
