3 Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
how true shalom.....mercy we did not earn, mercy we certainly did not deserve... and yet..... HE STILL CAME!
No palace...no jewels...no kingdom to rule, no crown of majesty; No throne and no robe..no silver, no gold, no courts of royalty.
Yet the King of kings left heaven to become a lowly man. He left all heaven's glory, to fulfill His Father's plan.
He still came... just for me, He still came. Knowing all He would endure, He still came; Disregarding every cost, from the manger to the cross, He still came just for me, He still came!
No family, no friends..to help at the end, no out no substitute. Much pain and much hurt, to give Love and worth, He bore our sins and grief.
Yet the hope of what He offered so outweighed what must be done, He chose to be my victor and assured my pardon won!
He still came... just for me, He still came. Knowing all He would endure, He still came; Disregarding every cost, from the manger to the cross, He still came just for me, He still came!
