MERCIES

Impunity is an illusion.
Elusion is a delusion.
Wild oats will sprout.
One reaps what is sown.
Blood will cry from the ground.
Mercy!
May my heart never harden beyond sensitivity to Your touch.
May my conscience never scar beyond recognition of Your voice calling me home.
Thank You for pain.
Praise You for the nauseous gut.
Never let me go.
Show yourself to be merciful and mighty!
Forgive me!
 Overwhelm me with the peace of your presence.
The devouring horde has done its due.
Restore the beauty; replace the squandered.
Rise up and show us your glory!
