Dieu qui fais miséricorde by Richard Quesnel — Lyrics
R. :
Dieu qui fais miséricorde,
près de toi rien n'est perdu,
En Jésus tu nous accordes
d'accueillir notre salut.
1. Au milieu de nos détresses,
quand s'efface tout appui,
Nous comptons sur ta promesse
que le jour vient dans la nuit.
2.Quand nos cœurs crient leur misère,
tant sont lourds tous nos péchés,
Tu accours ôter la pierre
qui nous gardait prisonniers.
R.
3. Au plein cœur de la tempête,
quand la barque est secouée,
Tu nous dis que rien n'arrête

About Dieu qui fais miséricorde
This devotional setting of a French text, Dieu qui fais miséricorde, opens with a warm, homophonic texture in the SATB choir, quickly establishing its hymn-like character. The music mirrors the text's message of divine mercy and forgiveness, offering solace and hope in times of distress and sin. The composer effectively uses the SATB voices to create a rich and resonant sound, underscoring the profound spiritual themes. The piece moves with a gentle but confident flow, allowing the lyrical French words to be clearly conveyed. Its sacred nature and accessible writing make it a fitting choice for services where a message of God's unwavering grace is desired.
