Psalm of Mercy (Psalm 103)

For the Lord will not cast off for ever:
Lamentations 3:31
 
He will not always chide:
neither will he keep his anger for ever.
For as the heaven is high above the earth,
so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
As far as the east is from the west,
so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
 
Like as a father pitieth his children,
so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
For he knoweth our frame;
he remembereth that we are dust.
As for man, his days are as grass:
as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
 
But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him,
To such as keep his covenant,
and to those that remember his commandments to do them.
Psalm 103:9,11-15,17,18
