MERCY GAVE
Lord lead me night and day,
Keep me firmly in Your way…
Wrap me in Your loving care–
I am safe when you are there!
–
Be my teacher as from my youth,
Let me never stray from Your truth…
I will not perish from the sifting sand
As long as You hold my hand!
–
My Lord and Saviour in calm and strife
Death cannot claim me for You are life…
No dark sins upon my garments stain
As I walk within Christ’s righteous reign.
–
Oh Lord, open my mouth in praise,
Let me reflect Your love all my days…
Use me Lord from cradle to grave–
Grace You showed when mercy You gave!
