Re:Why Forgive?

I dont fancy myself a writer but I went to a mens summit which I had a
great time and was spiritually moved but not at the level I had hoped for,
that is until I started to drive home at which time I had a very moving
experience and this poem came from it.

Forgiveness Forever For Everyone

My father God creator of heaven and earth
He lifts me up under his wings and rises toward heavenly things
There are time in this world that I?ll be brought to me knees
Comforted by knowing I?ll be at the feet of Jesus
My brokenness will be with me while my tears will wash his feet
Revealing the pain and suffering he took for me
His blood runs over me wa****ng away my inequity
This gift he gives me so that I can be free, free to forgive other you see

My heavenly father he lifts me up from the feet of Jesus
Together rise up again but wait what do I see
My earthly father wandering in that desert so thirstily
He doesn?t know what he is longing for because he has not yet received
As sons we become fathers and as fathers we see the world a little
differently
Heavenly father help me please lift up my earthly father to thee

Daddy won?t come with me and kneel at the feet of Jesus
Together we can face our fears and wash them away with our tears
Ours tears wash over his feet to reveal his wounds and suffering
You see dad that scare on his foot it was received that so we can be free
I forgive you dad and I ask that you please forgive me too for my
inequities
A son with some knowledge and grace to receive my daddy needs me to be a
father to he
To show him how to forgive so that we may live
We don?t always know what our fathers endured 
Just signs of brokenness that need to be freed
Dad I ask that you to receive this gift of grace from Jesus with me
Together we can be Brother is in Christ for eternity

The Father, Son & Holy Spirit in one
The gift of forgiveness is needed for everyone
You gave it us so that we could be free, free to forgive willingly
Our hearts and salvation are on the line give strength to be Devine
Heavenly father I ask just one more thing 
That someday Father my children will forgive me
