Thou art Merciful

I feel to write to my God today,
Who has saved me.
I do not mean from hell,
Or from the grave,
But from the choices I would have made
That would have caused me great pain,
Without His direction.

My God, Thou art merciful.

I feel to write to my God,
Who has shown me a better way
And though right now my road is lonely
And very painful at times
I know he is preparing me
For a greater joy,
For a better life to come.

Oh my God, Thou art so merciful.
