Have Mercy O Lord

Have mercy o the 
Light
for our thought is 
evil at your sight.
Our hearts are 
always on adultery
and our minds are 
full of idolary.
Have mercy on us
and wash away our 
sins by the blood of 
Jesus.

Have mercy o Lord
on the people of the 
world for our word.
Our attitude speak 
stupidity against you
instead of good 
example for others 
to view.
Our words are 
immoral.
Not realising our 
souls are immortal.

Have mercy o 
Saviour
for our enjoyable 
bitter behaviour.
We had done what is 
evil at your sight,
therefore losing our 
quality of bright.
We behave like a 
mow.
Please don't remove 
your sow.

have mercy o god of 
perfect mission
for our great 
ommission
you urged us to love 
one another
but we hate each 
other
forgive us and give 
us direction
so that through it,we 
shall gain salvation.
