Forgiveness....It'll Set You Free

Do you harbor unforgiveness
In your heart and life today
Has someone hurt you very much
Caused you trouble and strife along life's way…

Do you constantly think of
What to say if you should meet
Do you start to fret each time you think
When the memory repeats…

Unforgiveness is a prison
That keeps you penned in sin and grief
You'll never, ever be happy in life
Or have complete relief…

To forgive doesn't mean acceptance
That they're right in what they did
It's more for you and your life
To be rid of emotions you've hid…

Forgive as Christ forgave you
Fully and gracefully
Through prayer and love, you will find
True forgiveness will set you free…

And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone,
forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins."
Mark 11:25 NIV
