But You alone can grant us grace
To live the words we say.

How can Your pardon reach and bless
The unforgiving heart
That broods on wrongs and will not let
Old bitterness depart?

In blazing light Your cross reveals
The truth we dimly knew:
How trifling others debts to us;
How great our debt to You!

Lord cleanse the depths within our souls
And bid resentment cease;
Then by Your mercy reconciled
Our lives will spread Your peace.
