Magnify His Mercy

"Let all those that seek Thee rejoice and be glad in Thee: and let such as love Thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified" (Psalm 70:4).  "Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended?... He is a Shield unto them that put their trust in Him" (Proverbs 30:4,5).  "My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not.  And if any man sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous: and He is the Propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world" (1 John 2:1,2). 

Let everyone who seeks the Lord

Say, "Let our God be magnified!"

How rightly He should be adored,

Who for our sakes was crucified! 

Our Savior has ascended up

To heaven where He pleads for us. 

He drank the wrath that filled our cup;

Is not His mercy marvelous? 

His mercy bids us not to sin

And makes us sorry when we do. 

He sends us forth so we may win

The souls that He will lead us to. 

We magnify Your truth and grace,

O Lord, that brought You from above!

You have become our Hiding Place;

We've found our refuge in Your love.
