🎵 "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
