How Many Times (seventy Times Seven) Lyrics - Singles - White Heart

Lord, I got no more tears to cry 

Someone has hurt me, done me wrong 

I'm walkin' wounded, oh 

Lord, this pain is a knife of fire 

Why does it have to turn out this way 

Why do the innocent seem to pay? 

How many times 

Must I stand in the waves 

of this crashing sea? 

How many times 

Must I forgive all the hurt 

that's been done to me 

Let the jury go, set the sinner free? 

Whoa oh, seventy times seven 

Lord, I really don't understand 

Well I'm lookin' round 

for some stones to throw 

You're tellin' me I should let it go 

How many times 

Must I stand in the waves 

of this crashing sea? 

How many times 

I hear what you're saying inside of me 

But I don't understand the mystery of 

Seventy times seven 

How many times 

Have You wept from the anguish 

of all my shame? 

How many times 

Have I nailed You up on the cross of pain? 

You bled from a broken heart 

and I was to blame 

Seventy times seven 

Over and over again 

Seventy times seven 

Lord, You know just how hard I have tried 

Seventy times seven 

Gotta see that I'm hurting inside 

Seventy times seven 

Don't You know that my pride is at stake 

Seventy times seven 

So tell me how much one should take 

Seventy times seven 

Seventy times seven
