Forgiveness Lyrics


Its the hardest thing to give away
And the last thing on your mind today
It always goes to those that dont deserveIts the opposite of how you feel
When the pain they caused is just too real
It takes everything you have just to say the wordForgiveness
ForgivenessIt flies in the face of all your pride
It moves away the mad inside
Its always angers own worst enemy
Even when the jury and the judge
Say you gotta right to hold a grudge
Its the whisper in your ear saying Set It FreeForgiveness, Forgiveness
Forgiveness, ForgivenessShow me how to love the unlovable
Show me how to reach the unreachable
Help me now to do the impossibleForgiveness, ForgivenessHelp me now to do the impossible
ForgivenessItll clear the bitterness away
It can even set a prisoner free
There is no end to what its power can do
So, let it go and be amazed

By what you see through eyes of grace
The prisoner that it really frees is youForgiveness, Forgiveness
Forgiveness, ForgivenessShow me how to love the unlovable
Show me how to reach the unreachable
Help me now to do the impossible
ForgivenessI want to finally set it free
So show me how to see what Your mercy sees
Help me now to give what You gave to me
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
