Tag Archives: God’s Mercy
When I am knee high,
in grief and sorrow
when I am anxious
about each tomorrow.
I look at the span,
of God’s mercy . . .
instead of the extent
of my worry.
When I am waist deep,
in the vast unknown
when fear’s grip
clinches my backbone
I look to the depth,
of God’s grace . . .
instead of the expanse
of the dark space.
When I am as low,
as I can possibly go . . .
I look to the favor
God on me bestows!
~~~~~
Hebrews 4:16
Let us therefore come
boldly unto the throne
of grace, that we may
obtain mercy, and find
grace to help in time of need.

I have had a taste of God,
and all of His goodness
I have sipped from His cup
of truth and righteousness.
It left me with no appetite,
for the world or its ways
it has given me hope . . .
for peaceful, joyful days.
I have had a taste of God,
His kindness I now savor
for I have found in Him
my Lord and my Savior.
It left me with no craving,
for the world and its lust
it has given me the faith . . .
to put in Him my trust.
I have had a taste of God,
now my thirst is fully satisfied
my hunger pains are no more
once my heart, Jesus occupied!
~~~~~~~~
Psalm 34:8
O taste and see
that the Lord is good:
blessed is the man
that trusteth in him.

Faith springs from the heart,
as mercy falls from above
the earth becomes enriched
by the grace of Jesus’ love.
Hope dwells internally,
the seed has been planted
all who willing come to Jesus
eternal salvation is granted.
Truth descends from heaven,
peace to earth Jesus brings
the world opens up its arm
to receive its King of Kings.
Righteousness sprinkles down,
on a land parched and dry
the God of all creation hears
His creature’s thirsty cry.
Faithfulness springs forward,
the earth receives a new start
mercy and truth have kissed . . .
warming the coldest of hearts!
~~~~~~~~
Psalm 85.10-12
Mercy and truth are met
together; righteousness
and peace have kissed
each other.
Truth shall spring out
of the earth; and
righteousness shall
look down from heaven.
Yea, the Lord shall give
that which is good; and
our land shall yield
her increase.

From despair to hope,
from misery to ecstasy
are those who Jesus . . .
makes not their enemy.
For they’ve tasted mercy,
the truth they have kissed
His peaceful righteousness
they have not dismissed.
From dismay to trust,
from heartbreak to relief
are those who though faith
now have a grace belief.
For though they’re fraught,
troubled and stressed
they know just how much
they are truly blessed.
From desperation to hope,
from emptiness to rapture . . .
are the hearts and souls
Jesus has captured!
~~~~~~~~~~
2 Corinthians 4:8
We are troubled
on every side,
yet not distressed;
we are perplexed,
but not in despair;
Persecuted,
but not forsaken;
cast down,
but not destroyed;
Always bearing about
in the body the dying
of the Lord Jesus,
that the life also of Jesus
might be made manifest
in our body.
Psalm 85:10
Mercy and truth
are met together;
righteousness and peace
have kissed each other.

A Child, a Babe,
today is born
the Son of Man
Salvation’s horn.
Our Mighty God,
the Sacrificial Lamb
fulfills the Word
of the great I AM.
A Carpenter, a King,
brings Good Cheer . . .
of His Kingdom
soon coming here.
Our Counselor, Our Rock,
our Father Everlasting
long ago Wise Men
were heard forecasting.
A Child is born,
God’s gift to you and I
for the Morning Star
has risen in the sky!
~~~~~~~~
Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given;
and the government
shall be upon his shoulder,
and his name shall be
called Wonderful Counselor,
Mighty God, Everlasting Father,
Prince of Peace.

God’s gift of Life,
paving the Way
so for our sins
we not have to pay.
For His Word arrived,
on CHRISTmas morn
when to a virgin
His Son was born.
God’s gift of Life,
the True foundation
our Cornerstone
to eternal salvation.
For God sent His Son,
to love and forgive
so with Him in heaven
we can forever live.
God’s gift of Life,
is ours this day . . .
for the Truth came down
to show us the Way!
~~~~~~~~~~
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin
is death;
but the gift of God
is eternal life through

God guides my feet,
over mountain tops
onto high ground . . .
in faith, they do hop.
He leads my steps,
through jagged spaces
to prove to me . . .
significant is His grace.
He shines His light,
ahead of my steps
my soles He secures . . .
His love they project.
He takes me to places,
never before explored
to show me why it is . . .
I call Him my Lord.
He sets me up high,
gives me a glorious view
so His mercy my soul . . .
He can restore and renew!
~~~~~~~~
Psalm 18:33
He makes my feet
like the feet of deer,
And sets me on
my high places.

Today I am thankful,
for my daily bread
for the Holy Spirit
by whom I am lead.
For the abundance,
of faith and grace
for Jesus’ strength
to stay in the race.
Today I am grateful,
to my Father above
for His tender mercy
His wondrous love.
For His Goodness,
all He provides
for the power
He daily supplies.
Lord, today I’m thankful,
oh, so grateful too . . .
for all You bless me with
for all ~ for me You do!

If to God you draw near,
He will hear your cry
if you confess your sins
your heart He’ll purify.
If you will seek His face,
He will hear your prayer
if you call on His name
your life He will repair.
If you return to God,
you will be restored
if with your whole heart
make Him again your Lord.
If you seek His presence,
His mercy will be found . . .
if your idols you’d remove
to Him you would be bond.
If you were to God,
draw once more near . . .
nothing in this world
would you again hold dear!
~~~~~~~~~~
James 4:8
Draw nigh to God,
and he will draw nigh to you.
Cleanse your hands, ye sinners;
and purify your hearts,
ye double minded.
Isaiah 55:6-7
Let the wicked forsake his way,
and the unrighteous man his thoughts:
and let him return unto the Lord,
and he will have mercy upon him;
and to our God, for he will
abundantly pardon.

There’s no other name like Jesus,
no other One we can call on
no other person that can help us
to be to His Father drawn.
There’s no other name in heaven,
no other name given unto man
no other person who has for us
the way to salvation’s plan.
There’s no other name like Jesus,
no other One with such power
no other One we can rely on
no matter the given hour.
There’s no other name we know,
no other One that loves us
no other name that spells out
in whom we can always trust.
There is no other name that shines,
no other One has the light
no other name helping us
in the battles we fight.
There is no other name like Jesus,
no other name that we can call
no other person can save us
It’s only Jesus ~ or no one at all!
~~~~~~~~~
