It's Simply by Mercy Alone

It's simply by mercy alone;
God offers love from His throne;
To a world that's lost and blind.
He seeks to save, and yearns to find.
It's not of works, that one may boast;
Nor when one out gives the most.
He's calling now, come now to Him;
For ye must be born again.
Just like a new born butterfly;
Can see the world from the sky;
Your blinded eyes are opened wide;
When Jesus comes and lives inside.
It's simply by mercy alone;
He offered His Son to atone.
His blood was shed for humankind;
To break the curse of sin that binds.
It's not by Mary, nor by might;
Not baptism, not by sight.
He's calling now, come now to Him;
For ye must be born again.
Just like a new born butterfly;
Can see the world from the sky.
Your blinded eyes are opened wide;
When Jesus comes and lives inside.
It's simply by mercy alone;
Hellish pulls are overthrown.
For when you trust in Christ alone;
Salvation will become your own.
It's not by penance that one pays;
That keeps one safe on that great day.
He's calling now, come now to Him;
For ye must be born again.
Just like a new born butterfly;
Can see the world from the sky.
Your blinded eyes are opened wide;
When Jesus comes and lives inside.
It' s simply by mercy alone;
God blesses those who obey;.
Who make Him, their Lord and King;
And seeks His will for each day..
No need for some priestly father;
To forgive your deep dark sins.
for Jesus is the great high priest;
And lives within forgiven men.
Just like a new born butterfly;
Can see the world from the sky.
Your blinded eyes are opened wide;
When Jesus comes and lives inside.
John 3:3
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God
Eph 2:8-9
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Hebrews 4:14
Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
Mt 23:9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
Ps 13:5
But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.
