Listen "Gracious God (Ep 270)"

Episode Synopsis

What words best describe God? David, the author of Psalm 86 which inspired the song I share today, and many others would shout their answer, "Gracious!" God is gracious, slow to anger, full of love. Gracious God, which I wrote earlier this year, gives God glory for his compassion and mercy. I trust you will grow in your love for him as you listen.Gracious GodYou are a gracious God, slow to anger, full of love.Your faithfulness endures forever (and ever).Your heart is merciful; your strength beyond compare.Your people rightly fear your name.Chorus:Hear our prayers, Lord! Teach us your ways!Guard our steps for all of our days!And we will praise your name foreverWith undivided hearts. Verse 2:You are a good God, comforting the poor and needy.In their distress they call to you (you answer).Your deeds are marvelous; providing help and granting mercy.Your people rightly trust in you. Verse 3:You, God, deliver us, from every enemy.No foe can stand against; they all fall down before you.Your servants all rejoice; they shout your victory!Your people rightly worship you.©2025 Mike Neifert (Inspired by Psalm 86)
