The memory of the wrong, all that remains
Steals the happiness, kept bound in chains
What matters is being right, no further debate
Retribution the sustenance that feeds the hate
Tell everyone who would listen, why refrain
Plotting whatever will inflict the ultimate pain
Shout their darkest secret, don’t let them save face
Leave them afraid, alone, and in total disgrace
Peace will never be found, there is a better way
Fold your hands, look upwards, kneel and pray
Forget revenge, the hurt, the anger burning slow
Tell God, place it in His hands, and just let it go
Pray for all enemies to be blessed and then forgive
Free yourself, your Spirit, your soul, and truly live
If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins. Matthew 6:14-15
