TO BE MERCIFUL

Lord, you have always taken
Care of my real needs
Not all my wants will you satisfy
And that is for my good
As I tend to be selfish
And think I need where I don't at all
In your wisdom You know what is best
For me and for others
Lord help me give when others need
To forget my own and satisfy theirs
To live as Jesus did and share all that I have
With those more needy than I am
For you have said blessed are the merciful
For they shall obtain mercy

MY CREATOR

First, I knew my Creator as a Stranger,
Then I knew Him as a Saviour,
Soon He became my best Friend,
Yet He also is closer than a Brother,
Thru Hlm I found my loving Father,
Thru the Spirit, He is my comforter,
But He is still my God,
My Creator,
My Redeemer,
So now He is
All of these things
To me.
