Pre Chorus:
It is because you forgave me that I can forgive myself
And I know that since you forgave me I am forgiven
What you did to buy me back on the hill of Calvary
I ask myself the question did you die just for me
Chorus:
I have trouble forgiving things of my past because I feel so embarrassed
I know you have taken my burden and offered me forgiveness
I am still trying to let go of the guilt I feel on the inside
I want to let go of the shame and I choose to give my burden to you
Verse 1:
I have been forgiven by the one who set me free
And I no longer have to pay any of the fee because
He bought me I cannot believe he chose to wrap me in his love
And clothe me in his righteousness in exchange for filthy rags
Verse 2:
Is it really true that I can be a different person
And have I grasped the concept that you forgave me when you died on the cross
I need your strength to forgive myself but deep in my heart I know I am forgiven
I can forgive myself because you’ve forgiven me for so much.
