MERCY

Oh, envy has been laying within my inward parts,
Choking me lil' by lil' tearing my sp'rit apart,
Until God send a message a blessing to impart,
In haste I ran away but then I can't depart.
 
I was cast to the bottom upon that angry sea,
And in the deepest darkness a-giant fish welcomed me,
A grave-wide mouth opened slowly swallowed me,
A flabbergasting moment I was in Nineveh!
 
Alas! I learned a lesson a big realization,
When men regard vain idols, they are in alienation,
Only appeasing mercy marvelous imputation,
Can save a wretch vile like me and receive great salvation!
