. be merciful.

Out from the deep I call
To Thee O Lord to Thee
Before thy throne I fall
Be merciful to me

Be merciful to me
Be merciful to me
Through shadow dark and valley deep
Be merciful to me

From the garden to the cross
Thy mercy did endure
My soul purged from all dross
In blood made pure

Be merciful to me
Be merciful to me
Through shadow dark and valley deep
Be merciful to me

Thy mercy Lord is true
As ever truth will be
But still I cry for you
Be merciful to me

~Caedmon's Call



today I cry mercy on behalf of those i love who are in shadows dark and valleys deep. my heart's burden is really for those of my dear friends who have siblings in the midst of struggles. it is a place that can be daunting and hopeless to feel like there is nothing more you can do to help a sibling who is hurting. all we can do is ask Him who is Mercy to be merciful in the face of life's uncertainties and in our questions to recognize HE STILL IS. i will pray just enough hope for today and that His mercies may be "new every morning". may His blood be enough to heal the wounds.
