Vengeance is mine

I never have to forgive you.
I never have to show sorrow
So if that is what you’re expecting
You can wait a many tomorrow

For I felt wounded when you upset me
I felt cheated alone and left out
Now I just want to protect me
That I will do without doubt

It is easier for me to hold on to
The pain from the problems you caused
For if I really had to forgive you
I would have to give vengeance a pause

When I really stop to consider
The arrogance of my strong stance
I bow down, I must surrender
I must give Christ’s love a chance

For if I truly want His peace
And if I want His best in my life
There is only one way this can happen
I must cease from all things that cause strife

Romans 12:19 Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
Romans 12:21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
