Granting Forgiveness

Matthew 6:9-15

Our Father in Heaven so holy is His name,
Let His kingdom come and will to proclaim;
On earth as is in Heaven as planned ahead,
Giving this day our nourishment of bread;
Freeing of our debt as we forgive debtors,
Leading away from lustful evil tempters;
As He protect us from the evil every hour,
For it is His kingdom and glory and power;
So if you forgive others all of their sin,
Our Father will forgive you cleanse within;
If you do not forgive mistakes of another,
No forgiveness on you either in our Father.
We must forgive others for their mistake,
For being human we are all prone to make;
We need to forgive since it not us to judge,
If we do not forgive burdened with a grudge;
Being far from perfect in error of our way,
Each and every one of screw up everyday;
So just remember that God will take care,
As long as you have forgiveness to share.
