SDA Hymnal #299
Forgive Our Sins As We Forgive
Topic: Forgiveness
Lyrics
Verse 1
"Forgive our sins as we forgive," You taught us, Lord, to pray; But You alone can grant us grace To live the words we say.
Verse 2
How can Your pardon reach and bless The unforgiving heart That broods on wrongs and will not let Old bitterness depart?
Verse 3
In blazing light Your cross reveals The truth we dimly knew: How trifling others' debts to us; How great our debt to You!
Verse 4
Lord, cleanse the depths within our souls And bid resentment cease; Then, by Your mercy reconciled, Our lives will spread Your peace.
