Sweet drops of mercy,
on my soul rain
to heal and ease
the ache, in my pain.
Sweet drops of mercy,
sent each day anew
to swaddle my sorrow
in a blanket of dew.
Sweet drops of mercy,
on my heart parade
tenderly on my grief
His favors cascade.
Sweet drops of mercy,
soaking into my soul
so they, my heartache
can sooth and console.
Sweet drops of mercy,
God sends from above
to soak the brokenhearted
in the pearls of His love!
~~~~~~~~
“It is of the Lord’s mercies
that we are not consumed,
because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning:
great is thy faithfulness.”

Love the comparison of God’s mercy to water/rain drops.

Yes, that is one of my favorite verses too . . . in fact His mercy is something I write often about. I love the thought of it and the effect it has had on my life. ~ Have a blessed day with Jesus ~

Beautiful. How desperate we are for His mercy, and how often we are the recipients of it without knowing it.

Indeed Dawn we often don’t see it until it has already rained down on us. As I look back I can see where each drop landed 🙂 I am so thankful God is full of tender mercy, compassion and longsuffering! ~ Have a blessed day with Jesus ~
