  • I can't believe what she said
    I can't believe what he did
    Oh, don't they know it's wrong
    Don't they know it's wrong
    Well maybe there's something I missed
    But how could they treat me like this
    It's wearing out my heart
    The way they disregard

    This is love or this is hate
    We all have a choice to make

    Oh, Father wont You forgive them
    They don't know what they've been doin' (oh no)
    Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them
    'Cause I feel like the one losin'

    Well it's only the dead that can live
    But still I wrestle with this
    To lose the pain that's mine
    Seventy times seven times
    'Cause Lord it doesn't feel right
    For me to turn a blind eye
    Though I guess it's not that much
    When I think of what You've done

    This is love or this is hate
    We gotta a choice to make

    Oh Father won't You forgive them
    They don't know what they've been doin' (oh no)
    Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them
    'Cause I feel like the one losin'

    Why do we think that our hate's gonna break a hard heart
    We're rippin' arms over wars that don't need to be fought
    'Cause pride wont let us lay our weapons on the ground
    We build our bridges up but it's just to burn them down
    We think our pain is own apologies and get them to stop
    Well truth be told it doesn't matter if their sorry or not
    'Cause freedom comes when we surrender to the sound
    Of Your mercy and Your grace, Father, send Your angels down

    Oh Father wont you forgive them
    They don't know what they've been doin'
    Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them
    'Cause I feel like the one losin'
    I feel like I've been losing

    Oh Father wont you forgive them
    They don't know what they've been doin'
    Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them
    'Cause I feel like the one losin'
    I feel like I've been losing

    Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them
    'Cause I feel like the one losin' Writer/s: Jeff Owen, Mike Donehey, Ruben Juarez
