It's Not For Me To Say

It’s not for me to say What’s right and best for you It’s not for me to judge The things you say and do It’s for your heart to gauge And measure every step It’s not for me to blame And refuse to accept Your heart is known to you And mighty God alone It’s not for me to point And cast accusing stone But is IS for me to LOVE And treat you as a brother For judgment is for God And not for any other
