The Mercy That I Seek

Leave a reply 
Somewhere in the darkest night He’s waiting
Waiting for my praise to rise to Him
Somewhere in my deepest need He answers
Filling me with His amazing grace
Somewhere in my heart there is a witness 
Urging me to bring more souls to Him
Somewhere in my weakness He will strengthen
Sending me to sow the seeds of faith

I just need to cry out
I just need to listen
I just need to hear Him when He speaks
I just need to praise Him
I just need to worship
He will give the mercy that I seek

How amazing is our God
Oh, how gracious is His love
Oh, how wonderful He is each day to me
All my worship and my praise
All to Him In Jesus name
What a savior, what a friend indeed
Grace & Mercy

Mercy Comes Softly

Mercy comes softly 
like a gentle rain in spring 
slowly shaping into our life 
To replenish us 
restore us 
renew us 
revive us

Mercy comes softly 
like a quiet breeze in the fall
bringing cool sensations of 
peace in my heart 
my soul 
my mind 
my spirit

Mercy comes softly
like a bubbling steam
flowing down the mountainside into a larger river 
filling it with
fresh life 
fresh nutrition 
fresh energy
fresh strength

Mercy comes softly
like a fluffy snow on a windless day
covering the earth all around us
cleaning all it falls upon
making it look fresh
unblemished
new
beautiful

Mercy some softly into our lives
Every minute of every day
Never leaving us helpless and alone
Guiding us
Shaping us
Protecting us
Providing for us

Don’t miss it
Treasure it
Recognize it when it comes
Give thanks to God
Lift up His name
He will lift you up and out
Of any trial
Any test
Any temptation
Because in the blink of an eye
When you list expect it
But most need it
His mercy will come
Softly

Giver of Mercy

I find I have much unforgiveness
For things others have done in past times 
My mind is wrapped up with vengeance 
My heart has left love far behind

I can't seem to find strength to get over
The hurts and the pains of the past
Now bitterness knocks at my hearts door
And I'm not sure how long it will last

Then I think of the giver or mercy
The Savior who died on the cross 
If He could forgive me if my sin
Who am I to refuse the same thought?

Who am I to refrain from forgiving?
Who am I to hold onto a grudge?
Who am I to refuse to pass on
This gift I've received from my judge?

So I set out to ask true forgiveness
For all the past thoughts in my mind
One by one I approach those who hurt me
Even though they don't know what they've done

I become the giver of mercy
I become the reliever of sin
I become what the Father has longed for
To be like His only Son

Jesus came to this earth to forgive us
To wipe away all our offense
All He asks us for us to pass on
The great gift if mercy immense

Please don't hold onto hurts any longer
Be a giver of mercy to all
This is truly the will if the Father
This is how you can answer His call

His Mercy Still Cover Today

Leave a reply 

Mercy comes running from the throne of God
It reaches us right where we are
We should never doubt and never fear
That His mercy is always enough

In the wilderness trip of the people of God
God dwelt in the Ark every day
A mercy seat covered this precious abode
And His mercy still covers today

Inside of that ark was the manna from God
And the rod that budded from death
Also, the tablets of law were put there
Then the mercy seat covered this wealth

These three things represent three aspects of God
The rod was His almighty power
He manna showed His provision for all
And the tablets of stone show His law

Yet the mercy seat covered it all in that day
And His mercy should still be in that place
Our witness, our strength, and the things that we say
Should all be covered by mercy and grace

For His mercy still covers today
Everything that we do or we say
Make your witness effective this day
By delivering words of grace

Mercy and Grace Never Fail

Leave a reply 
I have these muscles that tighten and cramp
My eyes see double or their focus is bad
It seems that old age is drowning my strength
This life brings so many ailments I’ve had 

Arthritis in my fingers brings pain every day
Quite often I cough when I eat way to fast
My feet ache when walking or standing to long
But none of these aches and pains will last

But your mercy and grace never fail
Your peace and your joy will always prevail
The hope that you give me brightens my days
The love that you have for me always will stay

All pains will one day be wiped away
As your healing takes over this body of clay
No tears will abide as I walk by your side
Forever I’ll be in your care

Because mercy and grace never fail
Your peace and your joy will always prevail
The hope that you give brightens my day
The love that you have for me always will stay

So, I’ll lift my hands forever
I’ll praise your name forever
I’ll walk with you forever
Precious Lord, you’ll always be mine (REPEAT)

Because mercy and grace never fail
Your peace and your joy will always prevail
The hope that you give brightens my day
The love that you have for me always will stay

His Mercy Is Always Enough

It’s a wonderful, glorious day
The sun rises high in the sky
Jesus is walking here right by my side
It’s a wonderful, glorious day

CHORUS
He is right there with me each step that I take
When I stumble, He lifts me back up
Every day I’m alive I will trust in His grace
For His mercy is always enough

It’s a grand and spectacular day
I know that my Savior abides
He shows me His plan and is always my guide
It’s a grand and spectacular day

CHORUS

It’s a truly amazing day
The birds lift their song in the air
When I rest in Jesus, I don’t have a care
It’s a truly amazing day

The Gifts He Gave

Leave a reply 

When Mercy seems so distant
And grace seems way far off
I remember that your word says
There will always be enough

When my wand’ring ways lose sight
Of the path I should be on
Your mercy and your grace
Will bring me back unharmed

Mercy, oh sweet mercy
Grace, amazing grace
The gifts He gave upon that cross
Forever I am saved

I’ll always seek His mercy
His grace will be my aim
In all my tribulation
I will stop to give Him praise

Praise for His sweet mercy
Praise for all His grace
Amazing is His love for me
My sin is all erased

Astounding Grace

Leave a reply 
I am not forsaken.  I will not give up
I found my strength in Jesus. He is enough
Though Satan storms against me I will not turn aside
I will stand strong in the battle with Jesus by my side

It seems old Satan tries every means he can
To turn me from my Savior so I will trust in man
I will not be deceived by all His trickery
I’ll turn my heart to God for He’s my victory

Right now I call on Jesus and all the host of heaven
To come and hold me up in the comfort of His hand
The enemy seems strong but God is stronger still
I’ll fight on through this trial and heed my Saviors will

And when I gain the victory I’ll lift my hands in praise
To my precious loving Father who filled me with His grace
I’ll worship Him for giving me the mercy that I need
When Satan comes against me I’ll be found down on my knees

On my knees to pray for deliverance each day
On my knees to offer up my life to Jesus way
On my knees to praise Him for Her will show the way
On my knees before His throne astounded by His grace

For victory can only come when I am on my knees
The enemy is helpless when my cries to God increase
And even if it seems that my prayers have not been heard
I will stay down on my knees and trust His holy word

I know He won’t forsake me.  I know He won’t depart
I know that His great joy and peace will come and soothe my heart
I know without a doubt that all things work for good 
I know that Jesus loves me and my prayers He understood

Thank you Lord for giving me this peace within my soul
Thank you Lord for mercy when the devil seemed so bold
Thank you Lord for showing me your astounding grace
This day and every day I will lift your name in praise
