Mystery of Mercy – Andrew Peterson

I love this song from Andrew Peterson, "Mystery of Mercy," about the prodigal son and others. How little I think we realize how amazing it is that God does not reject and turn away from us even though we are turned away from him most of the time. The amazing thing is that he continues to pursue and treasure us! What a miracle it is to be the treasured sons and daughters of the holy, creator God:

My God, my God, why hast thou accepted me?
You took my sin and wrapped me in your robe and your ring
My God, my God, why hast thou accepted me?
It’s a mystery of mercy and a song, a song I sing
