Forgiveness

Bob Carlisle


Verse 1: 
I say I will, but then I won't 
Say I do, but then I don't. 
It happens every day, 
I hate the sinner, 
Love the sin. 
It's a sorry state I'm in. 
I've got to get away. 

Every time I throw that stone 
The fate I'm sealing is my own. 
Do you know how much I need.... 

Chorus: 
Forgiveness - forgiveness 
I can't live without. 
Forgiveness - forgiveness 
That's what love's about. 
Forgiveness. 

Verse 2: 
I say forgive and then forget, 
But I ain't learned to do it yet. 
You'd think I'd know by now 
I know how to hurt someone, 
Been on both sides of that gun, 
Pulled the trigger anyhow. 

When I'm hurting someone else 
I only hurt myself. 
I've got to let it go. 

Chorus:.... 

A thousand wrongs don't make a right 
And nobody wins 
When the bridges start burning. 
Can't you hear my cry? 

Chorus:...
