MERCY

Snippet
Mercy has compassion on the sinner but destroys the sin! R.M.

Scripture
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
“Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
“Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.
“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.
“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
“Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:3-10 NASB

I will kneel in the dust
at the foot of the cross,
where mercy paid for me.
Where the wrath I deserve,
it is gone, it has passed.
Your blood has hidden me.
Mercy, mercy,
as endless as the sea.
I'll sing Your hallelujah
for all eternity.
We will lift up the cup
and the bread we will break,
remembering Your love.
We were fallen from grace,
but You took on our shame
and nailed it to a cross.
Mercy, mercy,
as endless as the sea.
I'll sing Your hallelujah
for all eternity.
[repeat]
May I never lose the wonder,
oh, the wonder of Your mercy.
May I sing Your hallelujah.
Hallelujah, Amen.
[repeat 3x]
May I never lose the wonder,
oh, the wonder of Your mercy.
May I sing Your hallelujah.
Hallelujah, Amen.
[repeat]
I will kneel in the dust
at the foot of the cross,
where mercy paid for me.
Sentence Prayer
I confess to Almighty God,
And to you, my brothers and sisters
I have sinned through my own fault,
In my thoughts and in my words,
In what I have done.
And I what I have failed to do;
And I you, my brothers and sisters,
To pray for me to the Lord our God. Amen

(Common Prayer a Liturgy for Ordinary Radicals pg 28)
