“Thousands of Mercies”

You created the earth and the sky and all that is within

You make the earth quake

The oceans crash

And the mountains fall into the sea

You created the behemoth

With its mighty tail, huge teeth and legs like thunder

You see when the mountain goat gives birth to her young

You bring them into the world by saying the word.

You are holy

You are all-powerful

You are all-knowing

You are sovereign.

How can we approach your presence?

How can we enter your throne room?

We shutter in fear

We stand in awe

We have sinned against you

Rebellion is on our tongue

Blood on our hands

Why did you come?

Not to condemn

But to save

But to save.

So that we have someone to cry out to

Someone who’s been there.

Someone who knows pain

Someone who knows suffering

Someone who knows love

Someone who knows joy

Someone to embrace.

And we embrace.

I deserve hell.

I deserve the punishment of my rebellion against a holy and infinite God.

And we embrace.

And we embrace.

Show me the depths of your mercy.

All that I have that I don’t deserve

Show me the sufficiency of your grace.

Show me thousands of mercies.

Heal my brokenness

Renew my mind

Transform my heart

Show me thousands of mercies.
