In their hunger You gave
bread from heaven
and in their thirst You brought
water from the rock
But they
but they
Forgiving God
gracious and compassionate
slow to anger and abounding in love
You did not desert them
Even when
even when
You did not abandon them in the wilderness
the pillar of cloud did not fail to guide them
the pillar of fire to shine on the way
You gave
Your good Spirit to instruct them
You did not withhold
manna from their mouths
You gave
water for their thirst
Your compassion delivered them
Time after time
Even when
even when
But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. Ephesians 2:4-5
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16
From Nehemiah 9:15-20
