Mercy is not getting what we deserve.Grace is getting what we don't deserve Ps.47:7-8Sing praises to God, sing praises!Sing praises to our King, sing praises!7 For God is the King of all the earth;Sing praises with understanding.8 God reigns over the nations;God sits on His holy throne. Sing praises, for God reignsWith love in rich supplyWhen we withhold worship's refrainsGrace and mercy reply Sing praises with souls awedIn every care unfurledGreater is our glorious GodThan troubles of this world Sing praises to the ONEWho WAS, IS and Will BEWhose unsearchable riches stunHuman philosophy Sing praises to the LordIn joy or sorrow’s leaseThe wondrous riches of His wordBestow gladness and peace Clap your hands, shout for joyOur King none can dethroneNor earthly enemy destroySalvation’s Cornerstone Sing praise without reserveFor we have been blood-boughtMercy restrains what we deserveGrace grants what we do not Let endless praises spillTo God, whose SovereigntyAnd unsearchable riches willUnfold eternity/eternally Praise God with ransomed mirthAnd humble gratitude Let Heaven's foretaste fill the earth   With rapturous prelude © Janet Martin
