Clean Water – Seven Mile Walk

I have taken on the sins of the world and in return, the world would have them back
A vicious cycle where each shameful flag unfurled keeps reaffirming virtues that I lack
There is blood on my hands I can’t ignore
But the blood on my lips will have me coming back for more

We have shown our master’s hand a wicked grin, but toothless efforts mustn’t seize the day
Before the curtain falls, let us each begin to do our part within this passion play
There’s a body of work that tells the tale
But your body is the evidence of love that never fails

You are clean water washing over me
Your serene water will ease my soul and carry me
My unseen Father; watch me Lord, watch over me
In your holy water, I am free
