I've loved this song since it came out. It's also the third song on my playlist. Brandon Heath tells a little bit about how the song came about in this video. (turn off my playlist at the very bottom first, so you view the video properly)
Years ago, I didn't believe forgiving someone was truly necessary to live like Christ. I know better now. Not only is forgiveness a great virtue, I realize you have to do it (and to the same person who might have hurt you) over and over and over again. Forgiveness means giving up the hope that the past could have been different. And just once doesn't cut it...Jesus meant what he said, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times."
