Renewed Every Morning
Your mercy, O Lord, is not a well that runs dry,
Not a pardon recalled,not a fading sigh.
It is the dawn’s first light,breaking faithfully through—
Your mercies are new, Lord, every morning, and true.
Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:22-23)
Yesterday’s failures, yesterday’s fears,
Are met with today’s mercy,that wipes away tears.
The slate is made clean with the rising of sun,
A fresh start bestowed by the Holy One.
It is the daily manna, the bread for the soul,
Enough for this day,making brokenness whole.
Not a future assurance alone,but a present, real grace,
That meets me right here,in this time and this place.
So I greet this new day not with dread of the test,
But with trust in Your mercy,in Your faithfulness blessed.
For Your love never fails,and Your compassions remain—
A covenant promise,through joy and through pain.
Great is Your faithfulness, Lord, to me.
Your mercy, renewed, is my constant plea.
From sunrise to sunrise, my heart will proclaim:
Thank You for mercy, new every morning, in Your holy name.
Amen.
