Did Noah shout from the Ark that day,
"I told you so!", then sailed away?
Have you ever felt like Jonah that night,
Who saved the city but lost the fight?
Have you ever thought, "Sons of Thunder, they had it right!
Let's destroy the wicked with God's great might!"
Mercy and grace are great to receive,
God's compassion, His love, they're what we need.
When its for us, its justice rung true,
But those we find deserving are very few!
They say it is better to give than receive
But showing God's kindness can cause one to grieve.
Yet its His great mercy that saved you and me,
Now let us be honest, how deserving are we?
God takes no pleasure in loosing the lost,
He came to save them, He paid the cost.
We would always do well to remember our place,
How much we need Him, His love and His grace!
