The Lord Is Gracious and Compassionate

The Lord is Gracious and Compassionate
slow to anger and rich in love
The Lord is Gracious and Compasionate
sending His Grace and Mercy from above
The Lord is Gracious and Compassionate
he calls each one of us by name
The Lord is Gracious and Compassionate
his love for us will forever remain the same
the Lord is Gracious and Compassionate
he sets us fre from sin
The Lord is Gracious and Compassionate
Jesus loves us and we belong to him
The Lord is Gracious and compassionate
it's for us that he died
The Lord is Gracious and Compassionate
and he will always stay by our side. Amen 

Psalm 103
The Lord is compassionate and merciful,
slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.
9	 He will not constantly accuse us,
nor remain angry forever.
10	 He does not punish us for all our sins;
he does not deal harshly with us, as we deserve.
11	 For his unfailing love toward those who fear him
is as great as the height of the heavens above the earth.
12	 He has removed our sins as far from us
as the east is from the west.
13	 The Lord is like a father to his children,
tender and compassionate to those who fear him.
14	 For he knows how weak we are;
he remembers we are only dust.
15	 Our days on earth are like grass;
like wildflowers, we bloom and die.
16	 The wind blows, and we are gone—
as though we had never been here.
17	 But the love of the Lord remains forever
with those who fear him.
His salvation extends to the children’s children
18		 of those who are faithful to his covenant,
of those who obey his commandments!
19	 The Lord has made the heavens his throne;
from there he rules over everything.
20	 Praise the Lord, you angels,
you mighty ones who carry out his plans,
listening for each of his commands.
21	 Yes, praise the Lord, you armies of angels
who serve him and do his will!
22	 Praise the Lord, everything he has created,
everything in all his kingdom.
Let all that I am praise the Lord.
