Nothing is as painful,
As unforgiveness to the soul;
|
A heart that's torn asunder,
With forgiveness becomes whole.
|
A single kind word spoken
Means more than countless words;
|
The three words, "I forgive you,"
Are all that need be heard.
|
To a soul that has been wounded,
Like a healing, cooling balm;
|
Forgiveness soothes and comforts,
Till at last the soul is calm.
|
For the soul that seeks forgiveness,
When forgiveness can't be found;
|
It struggles vainly everyday,
To hear that simple sound.
|
The power in those three kind words,
Can heal a heart that's broken;
|
But that heart cannot begin to heal,
As long as words remain unspoken.
|
Compassion in it's purest sense,
Reside in those three words;
|
The three words, "I forgive you,"
Are all that need be heard.
