Within my darkest hours I've always known
that love would not forsake me in the end.
With open heart and willing mind I've shown
to fits of dark despair I'll not descend.
So when I am mistreated or betrayed,
by any means a demon could think of,
I know that I am only being played
by one who's lost and frustrated in love.
I won't fix disappointments to my soul
or spend my time in bitterness to grieve.
Forgiveness is the song that makes us whole
through suff'ring we may learn best to believe.
Redemption is the sweetest thrill of all
a sense of peace so strong, it's worth the fall.
