Forgiveness
A still small voice whispers this is not your hour
this is not yet your time to shine.
Another disappointment , another heartbreak
oh lord how long must I endure excruciated agony
of betrayal its slowly ripping a hole into my heart.
I cried for days with tears blinding my eyes, I cry out
my God, my God, where is my vindication
of these wrongs, that was committed against me
but in your most loving way you say.
That you must forgive their sins
remember I first forgiven you
so long ago on that old rugged tree.
We must forgive even in our pain.
we must forgive when they turn their head.
For your reward in heaven will be great
this will make me so proud when I present
you with the crown of life.
Listen my love follow my ways
because I have the best for you.
Please remember my sacrifice so long ago
the ones closest to me deserted me in my
hour of need and the other disciple
gave me up for a piece of silver,
and my father turn his head.
From the site of so many sins upon my flesh
We must forgive even in our pain.
We must forgive when they turn their hea.d
For your reward in heaven will be great
this will make me so proud when I present
you with the crown of life.
