FORGIVENESS

I take my broken heart
And place it at your feet
For you alone can heal me
No matter where we meet

Forgive the one who hurt me, Lord
May they be blessed today
Surround their hearts with your love
And guide them all the way

Help me to love them, Lord
And see them as you do
Through your grace and mercy
So they can see you too

Your Word says to forgive
When we do this we will know
That we are in your perfect Will
With compassion we can grow

Thank you, Lord for being there
Through every kind of trial
For staying right beside me
Through every distant mile

Your love is a sweet aroma
To this broken heart of mine
It penetrates within my soul
Where no one else can find

Thank you, Lord for healing
And the strength you give to me
For showing me just how to love
Forgiveness makes me free!
