Well I can't believe what she said
I can't believe what he did
Oh, don't they know it's wrong?
Don't they know it's wrong?
Maybe there's something I missed?
How could they treat me like this?
It's wearing out my heart
The way they disregard
This is love, this is hate...
We all have a choice to make
Oh, Father won't You forgive them?
They don't know what they've been doin' (oh no)
Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them
Cause I feel like the one losin'
It's only the dead that can live
But still I wrestle with this
To lose the pain that's mine
Seventy times seven times
Lord, it doesn't feel right
For me to turn a blind eye
But I guess it's not that much
When I think of what You've done.
This is love, this is hate...
We've got a choice to make
Oh, Father won't You forgive them?
They don't know what they've been doin' (oh no)
Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them
Cause I feel like the one losing! Oh no
Why do we think that hate's going to change their heart?
We're up in arms over wars that don't need to be fought
But pride won't let us lay weapons on the ground
We build our bridges up, but just to burn them down
We think pain is owed apologies and then it'll stop!
But truth be told it doesn't matter if they're sorry or not
Freedom comes when we surrender to the sound
Of mercy and Your grace, Father, send Your angels down!
Oh, Father won't you forgive them?
They don't know what they've been doing, oh no
Oh, Father give me grace to forgive them
Cause I feel like the one losing
Yeah, I feel like I've been losing
Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them
Cause I feel like the one losin'
I feel like I've been losing
Oh, Father give me grace to forgive them
Cause I feel like the one losing
