No matter what sin you do
No matter what crime you commit
No matter whom you hurt
The lord will always forgive you

As he says love the sinner
But hate the sin
Forgive the sinner
And forget the sin

Revenge and hatred
Is just as bad as murder
Jealousy and greed
Is just as bad as thievery

As he says love the sinner
But hate the sin
Forgive the sinner
And forget the sin

Just you remember
The Lord sees no difference
Between the victim and the offender
The only pure souls are the new born
So don’t do anything but forgive and forget.

The author's comments:
This piece started out as a song. But when I decided to submit it, I thought it could also be made into a poem. This piece is heavily Christian. So I apologise in advance if it offends anybody. This song is all about loving those who do wrong but hate the wrongs that they commit as the title suggests.
