THe pastor is doing a series on the Sermon on the MOunt. Next Sunday is the eye for an eye and I am looking for songs about forgiveness, going the extra mile, and loving our ennemies. Anything exist? Billie

There's a real lack of music on this topic, isnt there?! I searched the web for quite a while and came up empty. Then I leafed through the hymnal this morning at church and came with this:

"Forgive our sins as we forgive" You taught us, Lord, to pray;
But You alone can grant us grace to live the words we say.

How can Your pardon reach and bless the unforgiving heart
That broods on wrongs and will not let old bitterness depart?

In blazing light Your cross reveals the truth we dimly knew,
What trivial debts are owed to us, how great our debt to You.

Lord, cleanse the depths within our souls and bid resentment cease.
Then, bound to all in bonds of love, our lives will spread Your peace.
