Blessed & Hopeful

From your addiction, to your divorce
From your worldview, to empty discourse
From your abortion, to your lust
Despite all your actions, there is hope from above
Mercy! Mercy! I call continuously on both our behalves
Mercy! Mercy! & I pray you would cherish it, I call down now
Mercy! Mercy! God first loved me that way
Dying for me in that helpless state
Forgive me if I show any other

I’ll hope against your hopelessness
I’ll pray when you spit in my face
Pray when you curse at me
Not because I'm any better but because
God first loved me that way
God first loved me that way
Dying for me in my helpless state

This is an invitation to be fathered
Loved & saved from the slaughter
To be a son or a daughter

This is the call to repent of all that you’ve done
This is the call to rethink the way you see all things

The way you see yourselves & each other
The way life after death is now viewed
To have your mind closed on the truth
There is grace. There is life

What will you do with all your guilt
& all your shame when it’s terribly late?
You’re asking for reasons, but you’re proudly blind
