  1. Infinite Reservoir of Mercy

From the recording Shine Your Light

Share

Lyrics

© 2016 Emerging Light Music (BMI)

I prayed I could open my heart
I don’t see light in this dark
Longing for affection, not feeling understood,
Seeking refuge from wounds of childhood

I pass a homeless woman, I turn my glance away
Sometimes I feel ashamed, then I hear a wise one say:
“First, begin by sending good wishes to yourself
Let it spread to all you meet; the ice begins to melt”

Chorus:
There is an infinite reservoir of mercy
Always available and free
I need an infinite reservoir of mercy
The water heals me

My heart was broken; felt betrayed
Sorrow poured out in an endless cascade
Heartache opened me; I began to mend
I’m learning to treat myself as a loving friend

Chorus

Overwhelmed when I’m down
Feel like I could drown
Once in a while, I get things right
And trust that dawn will follow night

I washed my father’s body when he died
Such a gift to be there by his side
Remembering the times we walked along the sea
Feeling grateful for all he’d given me

Chorus
