Lyrics Tenth Avenue North

Tenth Avenue North

Losing

I can't believe what she said

I can't believe what he did

Oh, don't they know it's wrong?

Don't they know it's wrong?

Maybe there's something I missed

But how could they treat me like this?

It's wearing out of my heart

the way they disregard.

This is love

This is hate.

We all have a choice to make.

Oh Father won't You forgive them.

They don't know what they've been doing.

Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them

Cause I feel like the one losing.

Well, it's only the dead that can live.

But still I wrestle with this

To lose the pain that's mine

Seventy times, seven times

Lord, it doesn't feel right

for me to turn a blind eye

Though I guess it's not that much

When I think of what You've done

This is love

This is hate

We got a choice to make

Oh Father won't You forgive them.

They don't know what they've been doing.

Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them

Cause I feel like the one losing.

Oh no.

Why do we think that

hate is gonna change their heart?

We're up in arms over wars

that don't need to be fought

But pride won't let us

Lay weapons on the ground

We build our bridges up

but just to burn them down

We think pain is owed apologies

and then it'll stop.

Truth be told, it doesn't matter

if they're sorry or not

Freedom comes when we

surrender to the sound

of mercy and your grace.

Father, send your angels down

Oh Father won't You forgive them.

They don't know what they've been doing, oh no.

Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them

Cause I feel like the one losing.

Yeah, I feel like I've been losing.

Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them

Cause I feel like the one losing.

I feel like I've been losing.

Oh Father, give me grace to forgive them

Cause I feel like the one losing.
