Wash My Hands (Pilate)

Not another passover
This time is such a problem

To many to watch over
Raging behind every column

Now the Jews angrily
Bring me a man to judge

What could he have done
To stir up such a grudge

Perhaps release
Of a prisoner

Will cease
The crowd's anger

Jesus is faultless
Barabbas is a danger

They scream Barabbas
Their voices shake the sky

But as for Jesus
They yell crucify crucify

I wash my hands of his
Condemnation

I wash my hands
Of his crucifixion

Don't add his murder to my name
I will not be the one to blame

Hands
I wash my hands
I wash my hands

I wash my hands
I wash my hands

I wash my hands
I wash my hands

I wash my hands
I wash my hands

Get me a pan
And with water fill it

I won't be a scapegoat
You all crucify him

The crowd roars
And threatens to riot

I know what I must do
To make them go quiet

I wash my hands of his
Condemnation

I wash my hands
Of his crucifixion

Don't add this crime to my name
I will not be the one to blame

Hands
I wash my hands
I wash my hands

I wash my hands
I wash my hands

I wash my hands
I wash my hands

I wash my hands

This man will still die
Under my decree

I washed my hands
But I can't let him go free
