THE TRUE MERCY OF LOVE song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

Based on Matthew 7 and 8


Judge not lest ye shall be judged
and on these words He would not budge
the measure given is measure get
do you not see it yet?

and for your house build on a rock
and then the flood will wreck it not
cause if you build your house on silt
the rain will fell what you have built

and when a soldier came to Him
told of a man who served his house
was paralyzed and needed help
He did not turn him out

the soldier said I have no proof
I am not worthy to be saved
not to have you under my roof
but I ask thee: heal my slave

and Jesus said now here is faith
to ask for nothing for thyself
but to submit to God and fate
and trust to nothing else

He healed the sick
of broken spine
he turned the water into wine
He taught us well
the truth above
and the true mercy of
of love

forgive and ye shall be forgave
it's up to God who shall be saved
so take the narrow road of good
and trust to God you should

He said everyone who comes to me
and hears my words of sanctity
rejecting all false prophecy
he in the end is free

so as you wish men do to you
then you must do if ye be true
knock on the door, the door is mine
just seek and ye shall find...

He healed the sick
of broken spine
he turned the water into wine
He taught us well
the truth above
and the true mercy of
of love
