It is sin not to forgive

It is sin not to forgive
denying Christ’s commandment
to love as he loved us
his example in his walk
It is sin not to forgive
our neighbor, the stranger
for God loved us enough
to take our sin on him
It is sin not to forgive
as we are called by the Savior
to love as he loved us
to love without condition
It is sin not to forgive
knowing we too are mortal
none of us worthy
saved by the sacrifice of Christ
