Your Promised Mercies Are Beyond All Measure

Lord Almighty, God of our ancestors... and their righteous children: 
You made heaven and earth with all their beauty.
You set limits for the sea by speaking your command...

All things fear you and tremble in your presence, because no one can endure the brightness of your glory. 

No one can resist the fury of your threat against sinners. 

But your promised mercies are beyond measure and imagination, because you are the highest, 
Lord, kind, patient, and merciful, 
and you feel sorry over human troubles.

You, Lord, according to your gentle grace, promised forgiveness to those who are sorry for their sins.
In your great mercy, you allowed sinners to turn from their sins and find salvation.*

Thank you, my Lord!
