Merciful God

Merciful God, O abounding in love
Faithful to all who draw near You
Hearing the cries of the humble in heart
Showing the cross they may cling to
Helpless I come, broken in sin,
Found at the feet of Your mercy
Father, forgive
May my sin be remembered no more

Merciful God, O abounding in love
Faithful through times we have failed You
Selfish in thought and uncaring in deed
Foolish in word and ungrateful
Spirit of God, conquer our hearts
With love that flows from forgiveness
Cause us to yield
And return to the mercy of God

Merciful God, O abounding in love
Faithful to keep us from falling
Guiding our ways with Your fatherly heart
Growing our faith with each testing
God speed the day struggles will end
Faultless we'll gaze on Your glory
Then we will stand
Overwhelmed by the mercy of God
