I Wanna Be A Forgiver
Lyrics by: Darren Penrose
How can I stand here asking
For a mercy I won't give?
Holding on to old trespasses
Like there's some hope in them
You've carried all my failures
Nailed 'em to that tree
So why am I still here
in chains already freed?
I wanna be a forgiver
but now it's kinda hard to be
so Break down these prison walls
cause that's all that I can see
How can I love on my own?
Lord, will you work it through
I wanna be a forgiver
A forgiver just like You
I've been on my knees before You
Begging for Your grace
But with the same mouth turning
And cursing someone's name
You said forgive seventy times seven
I'm still counting two or three
Lord, I need Your Spirit
To put that heart in me
I wanna be a forgiver
Oh Jesus, just like You
tear down every stronghold
cause I can't figure out what to do
How can I ever love?
Lord, the way you want me too
I wanna be a forgiver
A forgiver just like You
"Father, forgive them," You said in pain
If You could speak that from the cross
Then my heart is Yours to change
I wanna be a forgiver
The love of Christ in me
Break these walls still hiding
every lie that's buried deep
How can I love on my own?
Lord, I'm putting my faith in you
I wanna be a forgiver
A forgiver just like You
I wanna be a forgiver
Just like You...
Just like You...
Just like You...
