I was just a child, when I felt the Savior leading
|
I was drawn to what I could not understand
|
And for the cause of Christ, I have spent my days believing
|
That what He'd have me be, is who I am
|
|
As I've come to see the weaker side of me
|
I realize His grace is what I'll need
|
When sin demanded justice for my soul
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Mercy said no
|
I'm not gonna let you go
|
I'm not gonna let you slip away
|
You don't have to be afraid
|
Mercy said no
|
sin will never ever take control
|
Life and death stood face to face
|
Darkness tried to steal my heart away carry for 3 beats ...
|
Thank You Jesus, Mercy said no carry it for 5 beats.....
|
|
For God so loved the world, that He sent His son to save us
|
From the cross He built a bridge to set us free
|
Oh, but deep within our hearts, there is still a war that rages
|
And makes a sacrifice so hard to see
|
|
As midnight fell on crucifixion day
|
The light of hope seemed oh so far away
|
As evil tried to stop redemption's flow
|
|
[Repeat Chorus]
|
|
[Bridge]
|
And now when heaven looks at me
|
It's through the blood of Jesus
|
Reminding me of one day long ago
|
|
[Repeat Chorus]
|
