Lord, give me a heart merciful,
tender, ready to forgive
give me a heart of kindness
not one testy and combative.
Let it be a heart of compassion,
filled with Your loving grace
Lord, give me a heart lenient
as Yours is for the human race.
Lord, give me a heart merciful,
overflowing with Your goodness
give me a heart sympathetic
not one cold, bitter or ruthless.
Let it be a heart of empathy,
where pardon makes its home
Lord, give me a heart benevolent
like Yours is from Your throne.
Lord, give me a heart merciful,
one that’s animosity free
give me a heart forgiving
just like Yours is towards me!
~~~~~~~~
“For he shall have judgment
without mercy, that hath
shewed no mercy;
and mercy rejoiceth
against judgment.”
