Album: The Struggle
Verse 1
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?
Well maybe there's something I missed,
but how could they treat me like this?
It's wearing out my heart, the way they disregard.
Pre-Chorus 1
This is love or this is hate...
We all have a choice to make
Hook 1
Oh, Father wont You forgive them
They don't know what they've been doing
Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them cause I feel like the one losing
Verse 2
Well 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
Cause Lord it doesn't feel right for me to turn a blind eye;
though I guess it's not that much;
when I think of what You've done.
Pre-Chorus 2
This is love or this is hate...
We got a choice to make
Hook 2
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
Bridge
Why do we think that our hate's gonna break a hard heart?
We're ripping arms over wars that don't need to be fought.
Cause pride won't let us lay our weapons on the ground;
we build our bridges up, but it's just to burn them down.
We think our pain is own apologies and get them to stop,
well truth be told it doesn't matter if they're sorry or not.
Cause freedom comes when we surrender
to the sound of Your mercy and Your grace,
Father, send Your angels down
Hook 3
Oh Father wont You forgive them
They don't know what they've been doing
Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them cause I feel like the one losing
I feel like I've been losing 2x
Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them cause I feel like the one losing

This happened to me today. God played this song for me just as I was about to leave my car and I've never heard it before! I just just sat there and listened to the lyrics.I needed this! Thank you! - Aug 2023
