Long Road to Forgiveness

He's kind of mellowed in his old age but the memories remain
She keeps bearing all the burdens as if to keep alive the pain
She can't erase the scars she's got from every word and every blow
But she's finding part of growing up is learning to let go

Down the long road to forgiveness there is fear at every turn
And she knows she needs to go the distance
Where her heart can finally rest, break these chains of bitterness
Down the long road to forgiveness

She's pointed fingers and stood her ground and built a wall around her heart
She didn't want to lose a battle in a war she not start
She carried grudges long enough but they've only weighed her down
but the bridges burned are just lessons learned that she carries with her now

Down the long road to forgiveness there is fear at every turn
And she knows she needs to go the distance
Where her heart can finally rest, break these chains of bitterness
God will heal her brokenness
Down the long road to forgiveness>
