Lyrics
Forgiven, Forgotten, Forever © 1988 Bob Smith
When Jesus of Nazareth
Lived on the earth
He spoke of God?s plan to forgive
The sins of humanity present and past
And those of a world yet to live
Even his faithful could not understand
But he knew that the blood
He must spill
Would once and for all
Lay the sins of mankind
At the foot of a cross on a hill
Chorus
God sent us Jesus the last sacred lamb
To lay down his life
For the burden of man
Gone were my sins
When he died on that tree
Forgiven, forgotten, forever they?ll be
But more than forgiven
The follower?s sin
Is never again to be seen
For God said as far as
The east is from west
Still farther your sins are from me
And so in his mercy
We find higher ground
And freedom from fearing a fall
For the Lord in his holiness
Cannot condemn
What he?s promised he?ll never recall
Repeat chorus
