Maureen Lefanue Poet Lyric

Freely Forgive - Song

As the Lord has forgiven you,
So must you also forgive.
For without forgiveness,
There’s no life left to live.
Enternity’s lost;
No hope of great joy.
Forgiveness is the key;
God’s blessings to enjoy.

Chorus 
Freely forgive
‘cause you are forgiven.
It’s another gift—
From your Father in heaven.
For this gift you must ask;
Don’t ever delay.
Freely forgive—
For there’s no other way.

When you are tempted,
To repay evil, not good;
To freely forgive—
You’ve not understood.
Lack of forgiveness
Leads to a dead-end.
For the gift of forgiveness,
On your Father depend.

Forgiveness is a blessing
Of pardon and grace.
From the character of God;
His love to embrace.
He will enable—
Forgiveness to find.
When the pain and hurt
Has been so unkind.
