Our God is Compassionate

I am overwhelmed

I'm short tempered

I use harsh words sometimes

You are in control

Slow to anger

You speak gently to me

We were born dead

We chose rebellion

We stand condemned in sin

You so loved the world

You chose redemption

You took our punishment for us

Our God is compassionate

Our God is compassionate

Lord, You give us grace instead of wrath

Our loving Father deals gently with us

Our God is compassionate

Our God is compassionate

You saved me from death

You kept my eyes from tears

And my feet from stumbling

Lord, You hear our prayers

Why would You listen

Why would You bend to hear from us

Our God is compassionate

Our God is compassionate

Lord, You give us grace instead of wrath

Our loving Father deals gently with us

With strength that can crush us

Using restraint

Our God is compassionate

Our God is compassionate
