Harder to Hate (Studio Demo) Lyrics

There once was a time that I'd unleash my anger
Before the spirit of God entered my life
I'd feel bitter at the smallest occurrence
But with God's love I've noticed a new change

The spirit of God has gradually changed me
Things that caused anger are now less important
I'm feeling compassion towards my enemies
I'd rather show love than express any hatred

It's getting much harder to hate
God's love makes it harder to hate
I'm finding it harder to hate
God's love makes it harder to hate

I feel more concerned with the problems of others
Though I'm not perfect, there has been a big change
Instead of selfish, I'm feeling compassion
I wanna spend my time serving the gospel purpose

It's getting much harder to hate
God's love makes it harder to hate
I'm finding it harder to hate
God's love makes it harder to hate

Hate hate
Hate hate
Hate hate
Hate hate

Enter His kingdom and feel the change yourself
Like a cool breeze He will change your priorities
Feel the peace of love as He breaks the chains of anger
Be restored unto the purpose Christ intended

Before I knew Christ I was a slave to anger
Consumed with hatred I felt so very bitter
But as His spirit has worked on my heart
I'm finding something odd, I'm realizing that

It's getting much harder to hate
God's love makes it harder to hate
I'm finding it harder to hate
God's love makes it harder to hate

Harder to hate
Harder to hate
Harder to hate
Harder to hate
Harder to hate
Harder to hate
Harder to hate
Harder to hate
