When I hold on to the pain I feel,
And the wounds seem too deep to heal,
Jesus, teach me how to forgive,
Help me to love and learn to live.
In Your forgiveness, I find my way,
To let go of hurt and not to sway.
Teach me to love, teach me to mend,
Your grace is where my healing begins.
Jesus, teach me to forgive like You,
To heal my heart, make me new.
Where there’s bitterness, let love reside,
In Your grace, I’ll learn to abide.
When I’m tempted to hold on tight,
To the anger and to the fight,
Jesus, help me let it go,
And let Your love in me flow.
Unconditional love, that’s what You gave,
For me, You suffered, for me, You saved.
Help me to love, to freely forgive,
In Your mercy, I choose to live.
Jesus, teach me to forgive like You,
To heal my heart, make me new.
Where there’s bitterness, let love reside,
In Your grace, I’ll learn to abide.
Oh, with Your love, I can set it free,
Healing the wounds inside of me.
Teach me to forgive and start again,
To walk in Your love without end.
Jesus, teach me to forgive like You,
To heal my heart, make me new.
Where there’s bitterness, let love reside,
In Your grace, I’ll learn to abide.
