about

In Psalm 109, David prays down curses upon wicked men, curses that are astounding for the sin that is revealed to us: "Because they did not remember to show MERCY..!" (vs 16)
"Blessed are the merciful, for they" [and they ALONE, says *Thomas Watson!] "shall obtain mercy." Mt. 5:7

*Thomas Watson's invaluable book, The Beatitudes, can be read online!!!

lyrics

Mercy Looks Like Jesus

Blessed are the merciful…mercy they shall receive…..Oh- o,
I will be merciful for mercy was shown to me…Oh-o

What does mercy look like?
What does mercy do?
Mercy looks like Jesus,
Helping those who need us,
Giving & forgiving
As He taught us to do,
And we should look like mercy, too!

Mercy has a heart of compassion
He never closes his eyes
To a friend or a stranger or a brother in danger
Mercy never walks on by…
Mercy looks like Jesus!

What does Mercy sound like?
What will Mercy say?
Mercy’s voice is tender,
Pleading with lost sinners,
Quick to grant forgiveness to brothers when they stray,
And we should follow Mercy’s ways!!

Mercy is a shepherd,
searching over treacherous hills for a lamb that was lost;
Mercy is our Saviour, shedding His own blood for His children on the cross!
Mercy has a heart of compassion
He never closes his eyes
To a friend or a stranger or a brother in danger
Mercy never walks on by…

He’ll never say, “Have a nice day!
I really must be on my way.”
He’s never said, “Be warmed, be fed!”Oh, no!
Mercy warms & feeds those in need!

Blessed are the merciful, Mercy they shall receive,
Oh-o…
I will be merciful for mercy was shown --to—me!
