Song background:

A long time ago, when I was very young, someone hurt me, pretty bad.  I am sure everyone has a tale like that.  One night, while pondering about what to do, the thought came to me to pray for her.  My head did not want to, but instead of heeding my own thoughts, (cause I know they usually lead me astray), I pushed those feelings aside.   I followed that prompting and a very sweet experience came.  This song is of that experience.  The power of forgiveness is so real. It is so powerful.  It is so healing.  It is an amazing gift we can have if we choose to.

Lyrics: In the still of the night,
as I sought to let go
of the pain and the hurt
that had filled my whole soul,
when I knelt and prayed
for the one who had hurt me,
In the still of the night,
my heart was set free
with this love,
Chorus
Love from above,
and love for the one
it used to hurt to think of.
Oh the peace that filled my whole soul
and wiped away my sorrow
with this love,
His pure love.
In the still of the night,
with my soul filled with light,
and my heart now changed
as I saw through God’s eyes,
and I felt of the love
He had for my offender,
In the still of the night,
He replaced my anger
with this love,
(Chorus)
Oh this sweet forgiveness
that has freed my soul,
through my great Redeemer
who has made me whole.
And He sets me free
with his love.
(Chorus)
