Forgive Me

Every day I give you a reason to cry

'cause I see the hurt in your eyes

But stronger yet

I see the love that shines

Help me learn to take on the nature of you

And love more than I accuse

And pardon others like you taught me to

Something happens inside my heart

Lord when I obey

Something happens inside my heart

Every time I pray

Forgive me

As I learned how to forgive

And reach out through the pain

And touch with hands of grace

Forgive me

As I learn how to forgive

And reach out through my own pain

And touch with hands of grace

As you prayed for those who crucified you

"forgive they don't know what they do"

Compassion reached out to a world confused

Help me learn to bless those who persecute me

And pray for my enemies

And show them mercy like you've shown to me

'Cause something happens inside my heart

Lord when I obey

Something happens inside my heart

Every time I pray

Forgive me

As I learn how to forgive

The ones that broke my heart

The way I've broken yours

Forgive me

As I learn how to forgive

And reach out through my own pain

And touch with hands of grace

Forgive me
