Lyrics
Forgiveness Started With You
Patricia Baker, BMI/Carl Schwitzer, BMIÓ2006
My Pappa was a ramblin’ man
Momma she died from her own need
I sprang from fertile oats once sewn
They scattered like wind blown seed
For years I was the orphan child
Home was the place I couldn’t go
Till You gave me the gift of love
I am grateful You bestowed
Chorus
Lord, I’ve laid the blame upon Your shoulders
You said that’s what I’m supposed to do
The hurt was too heavy in my heart
That kind of pain only chains a fool
I am forever in Your Glory
Because forgiveness started with you
I was born and bred from sinners
I’m what temptation can conceive
Nine months after full redemption
I’m a child of God, you see
In my heart I know they loved me
Though they seldom showed they did
I reminded them of weakness
They didn’t know You would forgive
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
I’m the cross they couldn’t bear
You’re the light I gladly choose
I’m proud to say I wear no stains
‘Cause I learned to love through You
Repeat Chorus
