Thank you for your Mercy

by Jennifer Molloy  
5/08/2012 / Poetry

Thank you Lord that no matter how badly we mess everything up we can always be sure that God will never leave us or forsake us. He stands firmly with us when everyone has left. He is the Good Sheppard and his mercies are made new every morning.

Lamentations 3: 22-24

Through the Lord's mercies we are not consumed,Because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: Great is Your faithfulness

Lamentations 3:31-32 For the Lord will not cast off forever. Though he causes grief, Yet he will show compassion. According to the multitude of his mercies

Thank you for your Mercy

Lord do you hear me calling in the night

do you see my tears my lord, do you see my plight

Heavy is my burden Lord this load I tried to bare

My shoulders ache, my heart is numb, hope is turning to dispair

Can I really expect from you all the things I read

How your mercy reigns and your love remains even when I can`t beleive in me

How quickly I have wondered off when I meant to stay

firmly on your path of life, please return to me this day

I need to feel your outstretched arms embracing me again

I need to climb beneath your wings as I confess my wrongs, so my broken heart will mend

Lord I really love you and I wish I was so much more

than this broken shell and shattered being cast up on the shore

Not worthy of a glance from you I know you`ve heard it all before

How I promise to live my life for you than I walk right out the door

Here I am on bended knee begging for another chance to be

your hands, your feet ,your eyes, Lord please let me see

The world as you see it help my heart to ache for what breaks yours

Help me to overcome my fears Lord please pick my heart off of the floor

And fill it with your light, your love, please let your mercy reign

Protect me from the evil of this world let your peace remain

Anchored in my heart this day so I can find the road again

and learn from my defeat, my failures, for this is not the end

For your mercies are new each morning they shimmer in the dew

A reflection of your grace, your love, given to a chosen few
