FORGIVEN

Burdened by a mountain,
Of guilt and shame.
Can you understand the power,
To be forgiven in Jesus name?

Released from yesterday's bondages,
A weight of care and pain,
Suddenly standing proud and tall,
Never to be the same.

And if you were to ask the Master,
Remember the sin you forgave me for yesterday?
He'd say, "Friend they were tossed in the sea of forgetfulness,
By my blood, they were washed away."

Be of good cheer, do not be afraid,
Your spirit refreshed and new
You no longer have a past,
Forgiveness is His gift to you.
