I want a heart that forgives
A heart full of love
One with compassion just like Yours above
One that overcomes evil with goodness and love
Like it never happened, never holding a grudge
I want a heart that forgives that lives and let's lives
One that keeps loving over and over again
One that men can't offend
Because Your word is within
One that loves without price like You Lord Jesus Christ
I want a heart that loves everybody, even my enemies
I wanna love like You, be like You, just like You did
I wanna heart that forgives
Wanna heart that forgives
When the ones that are closest
That I've known the longest hurt me the most
I still wanna love them just like You loved me
Even though I'm hurting
I wanna heart that forgives
When the pain is so deep
And it's so hard to speak about it to anyone
Just like Your Son, I give up my right
To hold it against them with hatred inside
I wanna heart that loves everybody, even my enemies
I wanna love like You, be like You, just like You did
I wanna walk like You, talk like You, just like You did
Wanna be like You, live like You, just like You did
Cause the heart that forgives is the heart that will live
Totally free from the pain of the past
And the heart that lets go
Is the heart that will know so much freedom
Lord I wanna let it go (Hallelujah)
God I need to let it go
Lord it's been holding me back
And I don't want it, I don't want it, I don't, I don't want it no more
I don't know exactly what to do to get rid of it
But, here I am Lord Jesus
Here I am, oh here I am Lord Jesus
Oh, Lord I need You, I need You
I know this is me that You're talking to
This is me, this is me, this me Lord, this is me
Lord I let it go, every person, every person that has ever hurt me
God I let it go, every single hurt
God I let it go, every single pain
God I let it go, I let it go, I let it go
Lord You can have, Lord You can have
Lord You can have it, Lord You can have it
You can have it now, You can have it now
Because I don't want it no more
