Father forgive them

🎵 "Father, Forgive Them"

Lyrics by Gerald Logan

Verse 1:

They mocked and they scorned, with a crown made of thorns

Nailed my hands to the tree, left me broken and torn

But my love never faded, as they pierced me through

I looked to the sky and I prayed for you

Chorus:

Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do

For I am the Son of God, and I died for you

With mercy in my blood and love in my cry

I bore every sin when I chose to die

Verse 2:

The earth shook with sorrow, the sky turned to black

But grace was poured out, there was no turning back

The lamb had been slain, the veil had been torn

And hope for the world was reborn

Chorus:

Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do

For I am the Son of God, and I died for you

I could’ve called angels, I could’ve gone free

But I stayed on that cross for love’s victory

Bridge:

From the cradle to the tree, I came to set you free

Every lash, every wound, was love's decree

I saw your face in the pain, through the blood and the flame

And I whispered your name

Final Chorus:

Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do

For I am the Son of God, and I died for you

Now the tomb is empty, the stone rolled away

And I'm alive forever, calling your name

Outro:

So come to the cross, let grace pull you through

I am the Son of God… and I died for you
