Lamentation 3:22 It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. Psalm 30:8-12 8I cried out to you, O LORD. I begged the Lord for mercy, saying, 9“What will you gain if I die, if I sink into the grave? Can my dust praise you? Can it tell of your faithfulness? 10Hear me, LORD, and have mercy on me. Help me, O LORD.” 11You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy, 12that I might sing praises to you and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give you thanks forever!
