Long Road to Forgiveness lyrics

He's kind of mellowed in his old age but the memories remain She keeps bearing all the burdens as if to keep alive the pain She can't erase the scars she's got from every word and every blow But she's finding part of growing up is learning to let go Down the long road to forgiveness there is fear at every turn And she knows she needs to go the distance Where her heart can finally rest, break these chains of bitterness Down the long road to forgiveness She's pointed fingers and stood her ground and built a wall around her heart She didn't want to lose a battle in a war she not start She carried grudges long enough but they've only weighed her down but the bridges burned are just lessons learned that she carries with her now Down the long road to forgiveness there is fear at every turn And she knows she needs to go the distance Where her heart can finally rest, break these chains of bitterness God will heal her brokenness Down the long road to forgiveness
