Fairness and Kindness:
Justice is fairness, balanced and right,
Mercy kindness, a gentle light.
One upholds with a steady hand,
The other forgives, understands.

Justice law, firm and clear,
Mercy compassion, drawing near.
One judges with a stern gaze,
The other softens, in many ways.
Equity and Grace:
Justice equity, equal and true,
Mercy grace, a loving view.
One demands with a righteous plea,
The other offers, setting free.
Fairness and Compassion:
Justice is fairness, a balanced scale,
Mercy compassion, where hearts prevail.
One enforces with a firm hand,
The other forgives, understands.
Judgment and Grace:
Justice is judgment, strict and true,
Mercy grace, a softer view.
One stands firm, unyielding might,
The other bends, in the light.
Scales of Life:
Justice, where the truth is clear,
Mercy, where the heart draws near.
Justice stands with steady hand,
Mercy, where compassion stands.
Justice holds the law in light,
Mercy, finds a softer sight.
Both together, guide our ways,
In their balance, find our days.
