Don't let the sun go down on your grievances
   Respect love of the heart over lust of the flesh
   Do yourself a favor: become your own savior
   And don't let the sun go down on your grievances
  
   And when you wake up in the morning
   You'll have a brand new feeling
   And you'll find yourself healing
   So don't let the sun go down on your grievances
  
   And yet if you find yourself in the dark
   And you're left holding the bag
   Then take care of it right away
   And don't let the sun go down on your grievances
  
   Sometimes you might want to give up
   But keep that chin up
   Cause you're gonna find
   You're gonna find
  
   Sometimes you might be alone
   But don't feel lonely
   'Cause you're going to find
   You're going to find
  
   Don't let the sun go down on your grievances
   Start each day with a clean slate
   You'll feel so much better if you can shake off all that hate
   And don't forget to forgive and forget
   Don't let the sun go down on your grievances
  
   (faster)
  
   Don't let the sun go down on your grievances
   Everybody!
   Respect love of the heart over lust of the flesh
   Sing it!
   Do yourself a favor: become your own savior
   And don't let the sun go down on your grievances
