And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
Ephesians 4:32
Be not swift to take offense, let it pass.
Anger is a foe to sense, let it pass.
Brood not darkly for a wrong which will disappear ere long,
Rather sing this cheery song, let it pass.
Echo not an angry word, let it pass.
Think how often you have erred, let it pass.
Any vulgar souls that live, man condemns without reprieve,
'Tis the noble who forgives, let it pass.
If for the good you've taken ill, let it pass.
Oh be kind and gentle still, let it pass.
Time at last makes all things straight, let us not resent but wait,
And our triumph shall be great, let it pass.
Bid your anger to depart, let it pass.
Take these homely words to heart, let it pass.
Follow not the common throng, better to be wronged than wrong,
Therefore sing the cheery song, let it pass, let it pass.
(Emily Troup 1899)
Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
