Mercy and Mystery
How recent the season of the manger,
And God’s beloved little Boy.
Now that Boy is in danger,
And a cross will be employed.

Lent has many reasons,
With Ashes just to begin.
To the last supper and crucifixion,
Then Easter and born again.

Let our souls become pregnant,
With thoughts of Him and prayer.
The essence of His life points out,
How much He really cares.
Just turn away from evil,
And return to His word.
He will heal us ever so sinful,
The resurrection of the Lord.
