Mercy’s Dawn

His mercy’s like a sun that never sets
But comes to us in ever-breaking dawn
And we no longer are by sin beset
But bask in light for which we’ve always longed.

When we see Him we know what we desire
As His forgiveness gives to us new life
With hearts aflame by Holy Spirit’s fire
To follow Him who gives to world His light.

When darkness seeks to on us each descend
We look to tabernacle where light dwells
And He bursts forth to shine on us again—
In Body, Blood comes our Emmanuel. 

And then we see His light alive within
Each face of those we meet along the way;
We see Him work to free us all from sin,
As He leads us to His eternal day.
