[ti:Father Forgive Them] [ar:Ralph McTell] [al:My Side Of Your Window] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]Father Forgive Them - Ralph McTell [00:12.10]Jesus was a man who kept the company of men [00:16.25] [00:17.64]Till he got betrayed by one of them [00:21.34] [00:22.20]And surely that must have been the biggest sin [00:25.30] [00:27.79]But in his final hour he even forgave him [00:31.90] [00:32.95]And what he asked you then well I now ask you too [00:37.53] [00:38.34]Father forgive them for they know not what they do [00:45.85] [00:55.41]For they too have their cross to bear [00:59.15] [01:01.44]In your love please let them share [01:04.58] [01:05.74]For Jesus would have understood [01:08.37]And brought them home to you [01:10.19] [01:11.22]Father forgive them for they know not what they do [01:18.65] [01:28.20]Most of us are troubled and we cannot understand [01:32.09] [01:33.66]Anything that doesn't fall into our scheme or plan [01:37.65] [01:38.21]But it's we have made the rules [01:40.28] [01:40.91]And it's we must share the blame [01:42.86] [01:43.48]For it's we who make outsiders [01:45.30] [01:46.13]And it's we who give them names [01:47.93] [01:48.72]And while we're praying for them [01:50.73] [01:51.28]What we really ought to do [01:53.14]Is say Father forgive them but please forgive us too
