Choose to Forgive

Brothers in the Lord, it begins with us, friend
If His forgiveness is to flow and abound in our households
We must be the ones who choose, choose to forgive
Help us Lord to make that choice

What we say to each other in anger alone
Can eat away at the heart of our homes
The enemy searches for that
Which in time will destroy
The blessed union
Our Lord God has joined, oh yeah

So we must choose, choose to forgive, oh yeah
Placing all pride aside and with His love decide
To forgive, choose to forgive
Life and blessing will reign
When we choose in His name to forgive
Choose to forgive (we got to choose to forgive)

Oh, in moments of misunderstanding and pain
When awkward silence keeps us apart
If we'll only open the door His love will restore
All the brokenness there in our hearts

So we must choose, choose to forgive
Placing all pride aside and with His love decide
To forgive, choose to forgive
Life and blessing will reign
When we choose in His name to forgive
Choose to forgive

Oh forgive, forgive, yeah
Oh, let's not hesitate
It's never too late
To forgive, forgive
Peace and healing will flow
When forgiveness we show (oh, oh yeah)

Choose, choose to forgive (oh)
Placing all pride aside (all pride aside)
And with His love decide
To forgive (to forgive) choose to forgive (oh)
Life and blessing will reign (life and blessing will reign)
When we choose in His name to forgive (forgive)
Choose to forgive (yeah)

Choose, choose to forgive
Let's make a choice to forgive (oh)
Oh, right now
