FORGIVE

forgive those who have hurtfully wronged you:
so you can live in victory free and true:
  for all the hurt pain and shame we lock up inside:
  results in our deep loss of self pride:
it is always in giving that we shall then recieve:
it takes great personal courage to forgive---and in gods mercy and grace believe:
  when we do decide to forgive:
  we can then open heartedly go on and happily live:
when we do forgive we again come alive:
we are back on the road to happiness and peace in overdrive:
  when we forgive we set ourself free:
  when we learn to forgive through gods eyes we lovingly kindly see:
those who harbor resentments anger and hate:
will one day wake up and realize it was there greatest mistake:
  to have moral courage is a virtue we all should seek:
  when we forgive it makes us stronger not weak:
when you have been shamefully wronged by another and with courage you are able to forgive:
peacefully lovingly with serenity -faith and hope you will generously be able to happily live:
  with grace understanding compassion --and courage to forgive--we live our life full and complete:
  and we know in our life with gods love we can accomplish any feat:
