Forgive
Roger Bennett
(Verse 1)
For sin that made my Savior bleed
I hang my head in shame
Yet for the cleansing that I need
That precious blood I claim
(Chorus)
The stripes by which my Savior bled
Bring healing, this I know
The blood that stained His garments red
Wash mine as white as snow, wash mine as white as snow
(Verse 2)
The harvest of sin I've sown
He reaped at Calvary
Then sowed a field of His own
And willed it all to me
REPEAT CHORUS
(Bridge)
The sun could sooner cease to shine
Keep to itself it's rays
Than can this thankful heart of mine
From bursting forth in praise
(Chorus)
The stripes by which my Savior bled
Bring healing, Oh I know
The blood that stained His garments red
Wash mine as white as snow, wash mine as white as snow
