~ Thy Tender Mercy ~
Love exults eternally, universal peace,
and so I say Love- in its benignity ... recuses
all ... and perfect-and servant in their fervent
manner; integrity, receptivity-and amenability,
illustrious and moreover devoted in their richness,
breed thy greater influence of peace throughout the
years; sanctifying themselves forever in their innocence;
becoming the fortunate prize ... an altruistic offering, and
humble sacrifice; given for all to embrace through faith:
a certain repose; and everlasting liberty; while-clemency;
oh Thy generous clemency, emancipates-knavery's tomfoolery.
and suggested to me, and granted as a wonderful opportunity,
grace ... is the universal proposition dancing through time hand
in hand within the arms of love; relishing in the promotion of
its deliverance; and so I say, when this hope of my days reprieve ...
has come to pass ... beckon me on-to know this-simple delight,
and hold me in Thy loving keep. Yes bring me Thine heavenly
Kite-to greet me. Secure me there, and lay me down then-
under the assurance; and gentle comfort of her wings.
Yes raise me up ... and hear
me oh Lord in my plea I
pray. (("Oh liberate
me";)) ("Carry my
soul off with her
to Thee";) (("
Let thy love
shower-
down
(over me";
))) So I may
embrace
for
myself,
again;
thine
~~~ tender arms; of mercy. ~~~
