I Forgive You - Me--Lyrics
By Karen Taylor-Good
and Colin Tipping
VERSE I’m working on forgiveness, working really hard, Cause I’ve noticed how it lightens up my spirit and my heart. But there’s still one soul who I beat up on, Shame and blame and heap the crud on. What a painful price that little soul has paid. So face to face and heart to heart, I think it’s time to say:
CHORUS I forgive you, you’ve done the best you could. I forgive you, I release you from the shoulds. I accept you as that perfect child of God you’re meant to be. I forgive you - me.
VERSE I wonder why it’s easier forgiving someone else, Mothers fathers, children, anybody but myself. Can I learn to love myself completely, The good, the bad, the cool, the geeky? Well the pieces won’t be falling into place ‘Til I can look with love upon this face.
CHORUS
BRIDGE When I slip into those unforgiving habits from the past I promise that I’ll see you clearly in this looking glass.
CHORUS
