To Forgive Lyrics

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
