In Psalms, chapter twenty-three, verse six, “Mercy” means God’s faithful love and kindness. With the Shepherd accompanying me through life’s pilgrimage, I will receive constant grace, generosity, help, and support. No matter what happens, I can trust the Good Shepherd to work in all things together for my good, as in Romans eight, verse twenty-eight, and James five, verse eleven, respectively. The goal of my following the Shepherd and experiencing His goodness and mercy is that one day I may be with the Lord forever, as in First Thessalonians four, verse seventeen, see His face, as in Revelation two, verse fourteen, and serve Him forever in His house.
The theme is the fifth part of one of the most popular memorable chapters in the Bible under “The Shepherd Psalm” section, with “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.” Without a doubt, excellence and kindness will continue, but it all depends upon the believer if they continue having the Lord as their Good Shepherd. Psalms one hundred and seven, under The Lord’s goodness to men, in verses eight, fifteen, twenty-one, and thirty-one, accordingly, identically are the same. “Oh, that men would praise the LORD for his goodness and for his wonderful works to the children of men!” All saints must consistently praise God for the great things He has done in our midst.
Psalms thirty, verse ten, “Hear, Oh Lord, and have mercy upon me: Lord, be thou my helper.” Two songs sum up goodness and mercy. The first”
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days, all the days of my life
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days, all the days of my life
And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever
And I shall feast at the table spread for me
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days, all the days of my life
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days, all the days of my life
The Second
Mercy rewrote my life
Mercy rewrote my life
I could have fallen, my soul, oh, cast down
But mercy rewrote my life
