May The Lord Have Mercy Upon Us. Poem by David Boyce

May the lord have mercy upon us.

May the lord have mercy upon us,
No matter what our bad deeds,
No matter what our religious belief,
Nor the colour of our skin or creed.

May the lord have mercy upon us,
And forgive us all our sins,
Many are up against the world,
From the minute life begins.

May the lord have mercy upon us,
And take all the good deeds into account,
To many they will be insignificant,
But it's what life is all about.

May the lord have mercy upon us,
No matter which is the chosen way,
For death is one certainty in life,
When it is our calling day.
