He can turn the tides and calm the angry sea    He alone decides who writes a symphony    He lights ev'ry star that makes the darkness bright    He keeps watch all through each long and lonely night       He still finds the time to hear a child's first prayer    Saint or sinner calls and always finds him there    Though it makes him sad to see the way we live    He'll always say "I forgive"       He can touch a tree and turn the leaves to gold    He knows every lie that you and I have told    Though it makes him sad to see the way we live    He'll always say "I forgive"       He forgives
