FORGIVING IS HEALING
Rick Amburgey, Chris Sligh
VERSE 1:
He said “little kids ain’t supposed to hear
Their parents wage World War Three”
But his parents fought and so did mine
So his words cut straight through me
His memories were my memories
Filled in with different names
But he stood up in that pulpit
And put some words to all my pain
And it felt like he was looking at me
As he took his time to say:
CHORUS:
Forgiveness ain't easy
It's hard to let go of the hurt
But holding on to anger
Hurts way more than it’s worth
The only way past it is through it
So if you can find your way to it
Letting go is gonna change the way you’re feeling
Just take it from me:
Forgiving is healing
VERSE 2:
He said, “I know my daddy was a good man
But he grew up the way he did
He’d never hurt mama or me
But I was scared he would as a kid”
And I swear he was looking at me
As he took his time to say
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE:
He said “Holding on to the letting go
Hurts nobody but you
But the moving on’ll set you free
And I know that it’s true”
REPEAT CHORUS
