Unmerited Love

What would I be able to give in... In exchange of this manifold love? Though so ungrateful I have been, yet your life you gave Upon my being adamant, you always tend to me Not minding my disobedience and disrespect. Every time I call on you, you listen I thought it a right that you listen always I was only ignorant that a privilege I had When dearest friends betrayed me I found the best of friend in You. Your love I scorned, you still love me more Your hand of peace I rejected, you gave grace At the point where a father could not watch his son You were there to watch and guide me What would I be able to give in exchange? My Father and King, indeed great you are What I sought in mortals, I have found in you Where else would I be able to find that I seek if not in you? Thank You for the unending love.
