As we forgive those who trespass against us
Peter Cornelius
Now that the soul to Thee out pours
Heavenward Lord oh lift me:
Teach me to be toward all my foes forgiving,
Nor to let hatred enter in
Clouding my mind and spirit.
I'll be, o Lord, as Thou hast been, forgiving!
And when Thy judgement call shall sound
To summon dead and living,
As I forgave may'st Thou be found: forgiving.
