I Want You to Wash Me
Parody of "I Want You to Want Me (Live)" performed by Cheap Trick and written by Rick Nielsen
(Matthew 3:14; Psalm 51:2-7, 139:24; Proverbs 3:5; Luke 15:17-20; Hebrews 10:25; Isaiah 1:18; Romans 10:13; Ephesians 2:8; 1 Timothy 6:20)

I want You ... to wash ... me!

I want You to wash me
I need You to lead me
I trust You above me
I'm beggin' You to take me

I want You to wash me
I need You to clean me
I'd love You to scrub me

Tried on my own without You
Put off attending church
I head home dirty and worse
Then You say that You love me

Did what I did when I didn't wanna be compliant
Oh didn't I, didn't I, didn't I seem defiant?
Leanin' on my own misunderstanding doesn't feel like science
No, even I, even I didn't quite seem to buy it

I want You to wash me
I need You to lead me
I trust You above me
I have faith in You to save me

Tried on my own without You
Put off attending church
I head home dirty and worse
Then You say that You love me

Did what I did when I didn't wanna be compliant
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I seem defiant?
Leanin' on my own misunderstanding doesn't feel like science
No, even I, even I didn't quite seem to buy it
Ohhh

Leanin' on my own misunderstanding doesn't feel like science
No, even I, even I didn't quite seem to buy it
Ohhh

I want You to wash me
I need You to lead me
I trust You above me
I have faith in You to save me
I want You to wash me
I want You to wash me
I want You to wash me
I want You to wash me

Psalm 51:7
Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
