Forgive Myself

Verse 1
There’s no life in yesterday but it’s hard to just let go
So many things I’d like to change along this broken road
I need the chance to start again, there’s no future in my past
And there’s no moving on for me if I’m always looking back
Chorus
It’s time to forgive and forget
Mercy has no memory; grace has no regret
God took those sins and carried them far as the east is from the west
And if Jesus can forgive me, then it’s time to forgive myself
Verse 2
Everyone of my mistakes has been buried by the waves
In the sea of God’s forgetfulness, He washed them all away
He looks beyond all I have done to the heart of who I am
And the One who saw me fall so hard gives me strength to stand
Chorus
It’s time to forgive and forget
Mercy has no memory, grace has no regret
God took those sins and carried them far as the east is from the west
And if Jesus can forgive me, then it’s time to forgive myself
Bridge
His forgiveness is tomorrow’s hope and where my healing starts
My failure isn’t final although there will be scars
Chorus
It’s time to forgive and forget
Mercy has no memory, grace has no regret
God took those sins and carried them far as the east is from the west
And if Jesus can forgive me, then it’s time to forgive myself
