God’s compassion is my story,
Is my boasting all the day;
Mercy free and never failing
Moves my will, directs my way.
God so loved us, God so loved us,
That His only Son He gave,
That His only Son He gave.
– From a hymn tr. by Francis P. Jones
When the Lord comes back, we will have to tell Him, “Lord, I marvel at Your wisdom and Your work in me. I never imagined, even in my wildest dreams, that You would lead me this way. My dream was so inferior to what You have done. You placed me in the center of Your will. You consecrated me to Yourself. You gave me all the divine riches. It was Your “mercy free and never failing” that led me, protected me, and blessed me.”
