A prayer for Mercy

A prayer for Mercy

May we feel held in Your great Mercy and Compassion Which pours endlessly out from the cross
Where you knew untold agonies in Your Passion Reaching out within and beyond space and time
To touch us in our own unique distress and pain. Only Your Love can save us
Only you can truly know
the fullness of our suffering
Bound intimately and infinitely with us Pouring out Your heart of Love
down all the years to reach us
to hold us
to heal us
to comfort us
to save us
May we receive the blessing of Your Gift right now
May we find healing and Hope
And a light that shines in the darkest hour.
May we be transformed by the Power of the Holy Spirit.
May we be transfigured as we look upon your beautiful face.
May we be renewed and strengthened by all that is good.
May we be brought to new Life in You.
May the flame of Light you ignite in us
Be a tiny spark reaching back to give you Hope
and certainty of knowledge
that we have seen
and we have heard
and we have received Your blessing
and been strengthened in our faith
by Your total sacrifice for us,
That in Your final hour upon the cross
You might have felt us touching you
as You touched us
in oneness and wonder
for all eternity.
Amen
