Losing- part 2

I just have to write about this song again. It's so amazing! Last night me and Joe looked up the lyrics for the first time. Well in one part of the song its much quicker so I always ended up missing exactly what was said.

Why do we think that hate's 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 our weapons on the ground
We build our bridges up, but just to burn them down
We think pain is owed apologies and them it'll stop
But 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

Ah, I love this so much! This is so contrary to everything the world says we should do. Instead of hating people and holding onto hurt this is saying to just let it go and let God take care of it. 

Another great part is here

Lord it doesn't feel right
For me to turn a blind eye
But I guess it's not that much
When I think of what You've done

I know I often feel like i 'have' to be angry about something. But whatever they've done to us, is nothing for what Christ forgave us for.  Can you tell I love this song?! =)
