The King of Mercy

He had the best of friends,
 they love him so much to take a risk 
But they could not heal his palsy,
So paralyzed that he could not use his feet ,
A crowd thronged around the Master in that enclosure,
They uncover the roof to get their friends to Him 
The King of mercy full of compassion, 
set him free from sin and made him whole.   

“Let us pass to the other side”
when He says it, it must be done, 
Not the wind can stop the King, 
He orders the events of Life, 
He was resting or controlling other events in sleep, 
In the ship they were perplexed as we all sometimes be
Then one remembers the King of Mercy, 
 carest thou not that we perish? He inquired 
“Peace Be still” 
The command that calm the storm. 


She bled for 12 Years and  suffered so much,
No sooner she sat the drench and wet clothes brings shame, 
The husband was no where near,
Families are wearied accepting fate 
The King of Mercy was passing bye. 
“If i but touch the helm of his garment” 
Faith sprung for one more help, 
The King of mercy saw her from the celestial  realm.
She stole the virtue with her faith
And there were more for others there.


Though the subject were slow to Learn 
Send them away with their needs
But mercy would not oblige carnality 
“Make them seat” said the King of mercy ,
There were thousand bowels looking up 
And he Fed them all as He does all men.
   
The King of Mercy Bids you come
He waits so long to meet your needs 
let not your doubts keep you away, 
He gave himself to give you all.
Look up His cross, his Blood and Live
