EMBRACE OF MERCY

 When darkness is cast against my sight

And my gaze seems obscured from you

When my heart falls below the threshold

When the waves of fate tossed my faith 

Savior, let me fall in your embrace of mercy. 


When the tent of friends and lovers are far

When the voice of teachers mute in truth

When I do not know the way from here

When axes threatens the fruit of my vine

Only let me fall in your embrace of mercy. 


When the surge of the sea stands at me

And the billows roared against my voyage

When my grip and anchor cease to hold

When too filthy could not touch the helm of your garment

Only let me fall in your embrace of mercy. 


When hell and destruction hunt after me

When hades plot to halt my purpose

When far away I wandered from your call

When at the end of the road I hit the cliff 

Only let me fall in your embrace of mercy. 


When the tongues of foes are wet in judgements

When against your ordinance I erred

When I missed your will at the borderline of choice

When I sleep in death knowing not my end

Savior, only let me fall in your embrace of mercy.
