Forgiveness

When I think of all the wrong I've done
I can't believe it's me that I'm talking about
I bet the same goes for you
There is plenty of goodness in this world
I hope some day to find it all
I hope the same goes for you
I hope the same goes for you
Thank God for forgiveness
I don't know how else we could get along
Without forgiveness
Without forgiveness
I'd like to say I'm sorry now
I hope this message is not too late
I bet the same goes for you
I hope the same goes for you
Thank God for forgiveness
I don't know how else we could get along
Without forgiveness
Without forgiveness
If there is peace of mind at all
I'd like to know it someday
I bet the same goes for you
I hope the same goes for you
I hope the same goes for you
Thank God for forgiveness
I don't know how else we could get along
Without forgiveness
Without forgiveness
