Forgiveness

Aching on the inside
How was I to know
Such a tiny seed of bitterness
Would all too quickly grow
Taking me over
Cutting off the flow
Of Your sweet Holy Spirit
There's a thirst in my soul

Send a wave of forgiveness
Breaking over me
Drowning my anger
In the depths of mercy's sea
Make me pure
Wash me in Your forgiveness

Drinking in the beauty
Of the grace that You give
So tenderly and patiently
You're teaching me to live
And there is mostly peace
Where there was rage inside
Still now and again I need to be
Swept away in the tide

Send a wave of forgiveness
Breaking over me
Drowning my anger
In the depths of mercy's sea
Make me pure
Wash me in Your forgiveness

Still waters may run deeper
But my soul's not satisfied
Till You come and wash me, Jesus
I will not be denied

Oh, send a wave of forgiveness
Breaking over me, yeah
Drowning my anger
In the depths of mercy's sea
Make me pure
Wash me in Your forgiveness

Wave of forgiveness
Breaking over me
Drowning my anger
In the depths of mercy's sea
Make me pure
Wash me in Your forgiveness
Forgiveness...
