Forgiven

I pretty much love this song. Verse two is pretty significant in my situation. Love it. Click on the link to hear it sung by the Gaither Vocal Band and Signature Sound.



I Then Shall Live
Gloria Gaither (who, by the way, is one of the most brilliant lyricists EVER)

I then shall live as one who’s been forgiven;
I'll walk with joy to know my debts are paid.
I know my name is clear before my Father;
I am His child, and I am not afraid.
So greatly pardoned, Ill forgive another;
The law of love I gladly will obey.

I then shall live as one who’s learned compassion;
I’ve been so loved that I'll risk loving, too.
I know how fear builds walls instead of bridges;
I dare to see another’s point of view.
And when relationships demand commitment,
Then I'll be there to care and follow through.

Your kingdom come around and through and in me,
Your power and glory, let them shine thru me.
Your Hallowed Name O may I bear with honor,
And may Your living Kingdom come in me.
The Bread of Life, O may I share with honor,
And may You feed a hungry world thru me.

Thanks for posting that song Karyn. The lyrics speak pretty deeply into my life too. We're pretty lucky aren't we - with the husbands we've got and the Lord who loves us?

I pretty much get teary-eyed every time I read or hear the lyrics. We are blessed.
