Lyrics

  1. He can turn the tides and calm the angry sea
    He alone decides who writes a symphony
    He lights ev’ry star that makes our darkness bright
    He keeps watch all through each long and lonely night
    He still finds the time to hear a child’s first prayer
    Saint or sinner call and always find Him there
    Though it makes Him sad to see the way we live
    He’ll always say, “I forgive”
  2. He can grant a wish or make a dream come true
    He can paint the clouds and turn the gray to blue
    He alone knows where to find the rainbow’s end
    He alone can see what lies beyond the bend
    He can touch a tree and turn the leaves to gold
    He knows ev’ry lie that you and I have told
    Though it makes Him sad to see the way we live
    He’ll always say, “I forgive”, “I forgive”
