Prayer for Mercy and Pardon
15 Lord, look down from heaven;
look from your holy, glorious home, and see us.
Where is the passion and the might
you used to show on our behalf?
Where are your mercy and compassion now?

but they chose to rebel against him,
and they were finally destroyed by their sin.

and listened to their cries.
45 He remembered his covenant with them
and relented because of his unfailing love.
