Mercy

The Mercy of God is overwhelming to contemplate and beyond thrilling to experience. It is receiving what we could never deserve, earn or buy. It is the gift of God for all who will receive it by faith in His Son, Jesus.

Thank you heavenly Father for Your generosity beyond measure and so wonderfully revealed in the humble and simple prayer of an honest sinner. “And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!” Luke 18:13  

His Mercy is More

Lyrics for His Mercy Is More by Matt Papa

[Verse 1]
What love could remember, no wrongs we have done
Omniscient all-knowing, He counts not their sum
Thrown into a sea, without bottom or shore
Our sins they are many, His mercy is more

[Verse 2]
What patience would wait, as we constantly roam
What Father so tender, is calling us home
He welcomes the weakest, the vilest, the poor
Our sins they are many, His mercy is more

[Verse 3]
What riches of kindness, He lavished on us
His blood was the payment, His life was the cost
We stood 'neath a debt, we could never afford
Our sins they are many, His mercy is more

[Chorus]
Praise the Lord, His mercy is more
Stronger than darkness, new every morn
Our sins they are many, His mercy is more

Micah 7:18 (NIV)
     Who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance? You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy.

Amen.
