By Your Mercy

By Your mercy, Lord I’m secured
Your providence can’t be measured
You’ve placed me in a stable job
For my needs and for all my love
Divine protection is assured.

For transgressions, I know I’m cured
In God’s words, I graze - laid pastured
I’ve peace, hope and patience at prob 
                 By Your mercy!

In my vocations, now tenured
Lord, in your love I was allured
Placing me in your precious cob
You graced my goals, I never slob
In your wisdom I was nurtured
              By Your mercy!
