how many times do we slip and fall
and the Holy Mother picks us up again
how many times do we scream and shout
not quite knowing what this life is about

and when we look at what we've done
we feel ashamed and pray
to find a higher way
to do a little better and try again

to become a true reflection
of what is our purpose and possibilities
that inner image that we see
that teaches us how to be

so we stop and ask for Mercy
to have another chance today
to be who we truly are
a child of God's great loving grace

we can ask for forgiveness
and ask to truly be
one who can live and learn to be open
and saved by Gods great Metcy
