Gordon Mcconnell Poet Rhyme

Endless Mercy Follows Me

Endless mercy follows me
goodness will lead me home
all the way to heavens door
so never again to roam

What a joy to know such mercy
never again will it end
following me throughout my life
through every turn and bend

What a great friend goodness is
being my leader and wise guide
directing in true and godly paths
making sure to stay on God's side

No matter where I will go
goodness and mercy are there
holding me securely always
being my constant care

So secure and safe
with God's blessed presence
endlessly merciful always following
covered in God's gracious fragrance

Darlene Gifford September 15, 2014 at 11:25 AM A heart felt poem, Gordon! Well written. I especially like your 4th stanza, where no matter where we go, goodness and mercy are there....And also, when I think of God, I, too, smell His sweet fragrance. Blessing, Darlene Gordon Mcconnell September 15, 2014 at 11:45 AM thanks Darlene, glad it impressed you, hope you're having nice day. by the way, it may be a few days before reply to email as tomorrow to help with funeral arrangements, so will get it done this week, God bless, Gordon
