Psalms 85:7

A church father on this verse
“Show us, O Lord, Your mercy, and grant us Your salvation. That the Savior came down is a matter of God's mercy: the physician would not have come, had not very many been sick. Because very many were sick, therefore the physician came: because we were in need of mercy, therefore the Savior came.”
Jerome, 5th c. — Homily 17, on Psalm 84
