GOD’S MERCIES ARE NEW EV’RY MORNING!

After the struggle and storm,

GOD’s mercies renew ev’ry morn……..

Praise His Name

His mercies remain,

By faith in you they’re reborn in!

–

Not all life is at ease,

abused, many feel squeeze……

of daily life

threat of a knife

someone else, forced to please!

–

Other religions don’t care

for downtrodden in fear……

women abused

are just viewed

as non-human chattel to bare.

–

Christianity as an institution,

Differs not in constitution…..

Its undertow

Of unrepentant woe,

Sin lurks in fraud absolution!

–

Where are GOD’s mercies then,

Do the tortured have no friend……?

For them light

Or darkness is fright,

Sufferings with no end?

–

My GOD loves everyone,

Sending rain and sun…..

For all living

Gracious giving,

To every daughter and son!

–

Unfathomable GOD’s grace,

GOD seeks to know face-to-face……

We creatures all

To this GOD call

For daily mercy and grace!

–

What of the suff’ring in fears?

BELIEVE–thy GOD nears—

almost beyond hope

in unbelievable scope,

thy MAKER sheds for you tears!

–

GOD won’t trespass human will,

That which would rape, maim or kill….

But all who cry

He stands nearby,

Comforting and always will!

–

Every man and woman chooses

Every moment who loses…..

Is it their soul

Or GOD’s loving whole,

Or the image of GOD he or she abuses.

–

GOD made us to love,

Choosing it comes from above……

Each choice when sin dies

Bring joyful cries

To a GOD of mercy and love!

–

GOD is mercy new every morning,

Coming with or without warning……

Believing is hoping

In the joy of coping,

GOD’s love inside us is warming!
