Mercy Came Down



Wandering on my journey
Up and down life’s winding ways
Looking for truths to stand on
Hoping for peace that would stay

That’s when Mercy came Down
Showed me the cross of Calvary
Where Christ had died for all mankind
From our sins to set us free

I came to a fork in the road
With arrows suggesting  different starts
One was broad and easy,  pleasures at every stop
Another steep and narrow,  God’s presence in my heart

That’s when Mercy came down
Spoke  God’s Everlasting Word to me
Became the light for that narrow road
The source of strength by which I’ve stood

John 1:3,4

4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
