John Worsham: Music

70 x 7

(John Worsham)
Worsham

How many times do I have to turn the other cheek

Take all the pain the world gives me without looking weak

Never be bitter – never be sore

But when someone hurts you, it’s hard to ignore

 

What does it take to have a heart that’s full of charity

Full of forgiveness and mercy just like he showed me

Never get even – Never get mad

No retaliation – No matter how bad

 

Chorus:

How can we ask him to for give us when we fail to do the same?

Just as the Father shows his grace, we should do likewise in his name.

70 x 7 – 70 x 7 – Never stop forgivin’ is how I should be livin’

70 x 7 – 70 x 7 – Show them what I’m made of totally filled with his love

 

 

Now some still believe in an eye for an eye

As if those two wrongs could make everything right

But everyone loses and nobody wins

When each person chooses to do those two sins   (Chorus)

 

 

How many times must I turn a cheek

Take all the pain the world gives me without looking weak

What does it take to have charity

Full of forgiveness and mercy like he showed me
