Your mercy washes new.
I hold back, you give all
I reserve, diminishing the call.
Other's in refusal or hesitation
to them a deadly destination
Ananias and Sapphira with holding
But how sweet the voice of the one
with in
No shouting or scolding
“Trust and give a better offering,
Unleashing is an answer to your
prayers,
Giving unblemished prize,
Fostering in you a softer side”
Your mercy washes over me.
When I hold back, you give all.
Teach me holy spirit to answer the
call
The initial pangs of release
Filled eventually with peace
The greater gift mine
To Trust in the divine
Finding courage with each new stride
In obedience, your love magnified
If I hold back you, you always give
your all
In Christ I cannot fall
And yet in refusal how much is lost
Opportunity to say yes and not
count the cost
To follow fearlessly
Giving all cheerfully
This the example of the one who answered the call
