Residue

(album: Close - 2021)

Take me to the water
Body going under
And when I come up
I can feel the sun shining on my face
And like a janitor You got me cleaned up
You made me a believer
The black mark on my soul has been erased

And now that I've been with You
I've got a new set of rules
I can see the old me is through
There's no residue

I'm close enough to hear You
Through Your word I'm made new
All of my mistakes have been washed away
Forever changed
And like a baby I'm taking new steps
And if I fall I know You're right there
I'm holding on as You're leading me
The right way

And now that I've been with You
I've got a new set of rules
I can see the old me is through
There's no residue

Cause You wash away, wash away
You wash away, wash away yeah
You make me new
You leave no residue
You wash away, wash away
You wash away, wash away yeah
You make me new
You leave no residue

And oh, Lord
As I gaze into Your beauty
I'm made whole, Lord
In the fullness of Your presence
I take hold, Lord
As the weight of sin is lifted from my soul
And You exchange my shame for joy
When I'm with You

I've got a new set of rules
I can see the old me is through
You leave no residue

Cause You wash away, wash away
You wash away, wash away yeah
You make me new
You leave no residue
You wash away, wash away
You wash away, wash away yeah
You make me new
You leave no residue
