mercy
Written by jonathan engle, joshua aldy, Laura Hackett Park
verse 1
I don't get what I deserve
I’d be lost in my darkness without You of that I’m sure
I’m so thankful You found me when I cried in my distress
You sent Your word and You healed me when I turned and I confessed
Chorus
Mercy, mercy
Jesus, You delight in
Mercy, mercy
Jesus, You delight in me
verse 2
When my shame was uncovered and my sin before You, Lord
You didn't push me away, nor did You pick up a stone
But You wrote in Your book the plans that You still had for me
You said, “The story’s not over, sin no more, come be free.”
Bridge
You dance a wild dance
You sing and shout it out
Rejoicing over me
Mercy
verse 3
Is it really forgotten, all my sin before You, Lord?
Are You really rejoicing when I fall back in Your arms?
Do You really enjoy me in my immaturity?
If it’s true then I want You more than anything
