When all seems lost 
and skies turn grey, 
little mercies will find you
to brighten your day

The people you meet,
 a quiet, kind word,
might comfort you gently
and soften your hurt.

The smile of a child, 
the sun on your skin,
can warm up your heart
and heal from within.

Look at the beauty
in all that you see,
then turn to your soul
and just let it be.

Life is still here
it stays with you,
you are  much stronger,
than you ever knew.

Remember, you won’t be
alone on the road,
little mercies will come
to ease your load.
