Tender Mercies

How very, very cognizant
I am of all your grace
Not only for your son who died
At Calvary in my place
But also for the mercies
I see with each new day
Exceeding loving kindness
Being sent my way
Tenderness that warms my heart
And makes it all aglow
Little ways you speak to me
That personally show
How much you care about my needs
My every hurt and pain
Every joy and sorrow
Every loss and gain
All the ways that you relate
With overflowing love
While living in my heart
And watching from above
