To Forgive Songtext / Lyric

Well I have never been the kind

To let too many get behind

The wall that I have built around my heart

And now I find myself afraid

And feeling like I've been betrayed

By one that I have trusted from the start



But friends are only human and at times they're gonna fall

But when it hurts the most is when they need you most of all






Chorus:

To forgive

Is to reach out to your brother

As one friend to another

No matter what the cost

To forgive

Is to leave the past behind you

And pray tomorrow finds you

Stronger for the journey

As every day we're learning

To forgive



It was another place and time

When I had failed a friend of mine

And there was no one else to take the blame

But when He could have turned away

Somehow He found the strength to stay

His love for me was stronger than the pain



In light of all His mercy it's much easier to see

That even from the cross the Lord was calling you and me



Chorus
