Forgiveness Song





















This is a song I think I wrote in about 1976. The lyrics can be sung over the Bob Marley tune I Shot The Sheriff.


Forgive


//Forgive one another
And don't hold a grudge
Judge not your brother
That you be not judged.


With what measure that you mete
It will be measured to you again
Agree with your adversary quickly
While you are in the way with him.


//Forgive one another....


Why behold the mote that's in your brother's eye
And not the beam that's in your own
Try cleaning up your own back yard
Before you pick at someone else's home.


//Forgive one another....


People who live in glass houses
Should not be throwing stones
Let the man without sin among you
Be the first to cast a stone.


//Forgive one another
And don't hold a grudge
Judge not your brother
That you be not judged.

That is a cool song. Living for God brings a non judging judgement. Like Jesus said", had I not come you would know no sin but now that I came your sin is exposed. I am paraphrasing I think but we as Light bearers bring a judgment to where ever we are but it is not judging who is closer to God its just what light does when it comes up in the morning.
