In praying for them, I wrote this song which applies to anyone tempted to suicide. Lyrics MARTYR OF MERCYVERSE 1Mirror of truth shows no lie;Filled with sinWhen the soul's near to die.Devil's out for the final kill,Saying you're not worthy,And you never will.PRE-CHORUSJesus says, "Worthy of glory, no;Worthy of mercy, so..."But the soul's on the ground;Won't turn around.CHORUSWho'll be the Martyr of Mercy?Who'll take the graces that others reject,To offer them back to the dying,And save that despairing soul yet?VERSE 2The soul can't cope;Knows the picture too well.Devil's pushing suicide to Hell.PRE-CHORUSJesus says, "Own the sin;Turn within the arms of My Mercy."Trembling with doubt,The soul reaches out.CHORUSTAGLord, are You calling meTo be A Martyr of Mercy?
