I thought I was so clever
Thought I was so wise
Surely You could never see
Inside this darkness
I thought that I had fooled You
Now I see I was the fool
Thinking that I could hide this darkness
In my heart

So wash me, Lord
In Your presence
Wash me, make me clean
There's a stain in my heart
That only You can see
Wash me, make me clean

I brought You sacrifices
My silver and my gold
In my selfishness
I tried to buy Your pleasure
But Your holiness requires
The offering You desire
Is that I bring to You
A brokеn, humble heart

So break mе, Lord
In Your presence
Break me, set me free
There's a stain in my heart
That only You can see
So wash me, Lord
In Your presence
Wash me, make me clean
There's a stain in my heart
That only You can see
Wash me, make me clean
