Wash Over Me

Wash Over Me is a newer song written after an encouragement at Songwrite 2019 to write songs that were lyrically simpler, and more upbeat. It has an RnB or soul kind of groove. David MacGregor wrote the music which I love. There isn’t a recording yet. The song is included in my worship book Deeper Water published by Mediacom Education. Due to an initial error in the book, the music for this song is available as a free download on the Mediacom page (click on the book title here).

Here are the lyrics.

Weighing all my sorrows
Restless in my sleep
Wading in the water
Falling in the deep
Wash over me
Wash over me
Spirit come wash over me

All over me
All over me
Spirit come wash over me

Floating in the deluge
Yearning for some peace
Sinking into silence
None to rescue me
Come carry me
Come carry me
Spirit come, come carry me

Come carry me
Come carry me
Spirit come and carry me

Rising from the chasm
Grasping for the light
Longing for redemption
Gasping for new life
Breathe in me
Breathe in me
Spirit breathe new life in me

New life in me
New life in me
Spirit breathe new life in me

New life in me
New life in me
Spirit breathe new life in me
