He's on the Way HOME!!!!

SPC Jonathan D. Warren

Our soldier is on the way home...right now!!!!

Psalms 138:7-8 :

Though I walk in the midst of trouble,

you preserve my life;

you stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies,

and your right hand delivers me.

The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me;

your steadfast love, O LORD, endures forever.

Do not forsake the work of your hands.

We offer our praise to our Lord for his hand of protection..

My heart is full this morning. I am sitting on the balcony of the condo looking at the water and the beautiful blue sky...

Lots of praise going on in this heart of mine....

And as I think about Jonathan ... I want to share with you a song that has been my song for him for about the past 6 years....Our friend, Rick sings it for us at church (maybe we can talk him into singing it again soon).

Here are the words:

Mercy Said NO

I was just a child, when I felt the Savior leading

I was drawn to what I could not understand

And for the cause of Christ, I have spent my days believing

That what He'd have me be, is who I am

As I've come to see the weaker side of me

I realize His grace is what I'll need

When sin demanded justice for my soul

(Chorus)Mercy said no

I'm not going to let you go

I'm not going to let you slip away

You don't have to be afraid

Mercy said no

Sin will never take control

Life and death stood face to face

Darkness tried to steal my heart away

Thank You Jesus,

Mercy said no

For God so loved the world,

that He sent His son to save us

From the cross He built a bridge to set us free

Oh, but deep within our hearts,

there is still a war that rages

And makes a sacrifice so hard to see

As midnight fell upon the crucifixion day

The light of hope seemed oh so far away

As evil tried to stop redemption's flow

(Repeat Chorus)

And now when heaven looks at me

It's through the blood of Jesus

Reminding me of one day long ago

Mercy said no

I'm not going to let you go

I'm not going to let you slip away

You don't have to be afraid

Mercy said NO

Sin will never take control

Life and Death stood face to face

Darkness tried to steal my heart away

Thank you Jesus,

MERCY SAID NO

I'll probably be singing it all day. :)
