Mercy, Mercy Me

I looked around
For a helping hand

But as far as I looked
I was always spooked

For I could not see The Light
He was hidden from my sight

Then came a day that I remember well
Demons and devils had escaped from Hell

They taunted me, they haunted me
Bullies that they most truly seem to be

I ran away from God, from the safety of His Fold
I chose instead to hunt for treasures of silver and gold

As far as I ran, God always kept up
Staying by my side, though I ran far and wide

Now, I’ve come back asking to be justified
Asking to be let inside The Kingdom of God

Jesus is full of love, mercy and kindness
Though I was full of ignorance and blindness

I thought that I would never find any trace
Of God, though He was always on my mind

How did things get so bad out here, year upon year
It was just because I could not hear Jesus or God

Lately I have felt the Holy Spirit of the Triune God
Flowing through my side like an electric current
     making my insides come alive

I never want to lose that Love that I felt from Mary,
     The Holy Mother of God as I stood by Her side

I have found grace in these end times happening now
God is calling His Children to Himself from every side

Mercy, Mercy Me, I thought that I would never see
The day to come when God could and would use me

I feel so blessed and happy too, but when I don’t feel
God, I feel so sad again as if I really did not win my
     place with Him

But, Jesus has told me I have been saved by Grace
Now, I hope that of my sin there remains no trace

For I would, if I could feel that good again by that
Positive, Loving Joy that comes from knowing Jesus is 
     always nearby and close enough to touch.

As I fall down on my knees, I thank God so very much
     for the Salvation which is free and given to me!
