Vs 1 Like the sun upon my skin

I can smile and soak it in

and my wounds begin to heal

That’s God’s mercy

Vs 2 Like a fragrance in the air

Scent that lightens my despair

Loving kindness always there

That’s God’s mercy

Ch When I’m feeling lost from all that’s good

When I’m failing all the good I would

When I fear that all I ever could become lies wasted

When I can’t reach out, accept, forgive

When it’s hard to change the way I live

When my need for care, for love, to give, are all frustrated

Vs 3 Like a flower opening wide

Glow of love that spreads inside

Humble gift to breach my pride

That’s God’s mercy

Vs 4 Loving gaze upon my soul

Seeing all complete and whole

Healing vision to console

That’s God’s mercy

Vs 5 Gentle breath upon my heart

Warm embrace that takes my part

Place of strength from where I start

That’s God’s mercy

For me
