DON’T GET WHAT WE DESERVE<\/p>\n

You won’t understand God’s Mercy,
\nTill you see how evil Satan can be,
\nThat fiend condemns us down to Hell,
\nWhile the Lord can set us all free.<\/p>\n

You see, people really do deserve,
\nWhat the Devil would send our way,
\nAnd we would have to pay the price,
\nExcept that Jesus saved the day.<\/p>\n

So then, as dirty as we all may be,
\nCovered in the red of our own sin,
\nIf we accept God’s Mercy thru Jesus,
\nThru Heaven’s Gate He’ll let us in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
