Lyrics

He Forgives
Copyright  Stanley Loh, March 7, 2003. With the invasion of Iraq looming, I wrote this song…

VERSE 1
A			
He wrinkled the earth into mountains,
                                                                           E
And rolled out prairies of wheat, 
                  A                            A7		                     D                    
He sprinkled the skies with His magical colors,
               A                       E	          A
His bees gave honey so sweet.

VERSE 2
A			        
What a beautiful place His creation,
                                                                  E
What a gift He gave to Man,
                       A                                                             A7		D			 
But we wear those man-made blinders neglecting all His signs,
                                   A          E			 A
Trampling over all His stately pines.

CHORUS
                          A                                    D                             
But He forgives, He forgives, 
                      A					    E			 
He forgives those who spoil His land
             A	        A7		  D
He lifts the shadow, gives another chance, 
                   A                          E	                                  A
He forgives and lends His other hand.  

VERSE 3
A			
We listened to kings and their speeches,
                                                                            E
And we hoisted high their flags,
                         A                        A7		                                      D                    
The scapegoats believed the faithless autocrats,
                   A               E	                   A
Who ruined all His habitat.
(Repeat Chorus)     


VERSE 4 
                       A			
Now rampant fires burn throughout His kingdom,
                                                                                         E
And the floods and snow unchecked,
          A                              A7                    D                    
Casting deep sorrow as earth soaks innocence,
               A                           E	                                    A
His tears will cleanse those who repent. 
(Repeat Chorus)
