Mercy
[Verse 1]
Who is like You, God
Rich in endless love?
Forgiveness bled from Your side
When we knew not what we had done
What kind of love is this
That would rather show mercy than judge
What kind of love is this
That a Father sends His only son
[Chorus 1]
Mercy, You've shown us mercy
Your mercy is the action
Of a heart full of compassion
Mercy, You've shown us mercy
Mercy is the action
Of a heart full of compassion
[Verse 2]
Mercy changes the heart
And words only go so far
Make us Your hands and Your feet
To give what we freely receive
Teach us to love like You love
To rather show mercy than judge
Teach us to give like You give
When it hurts we will choose to forgive
[Chorus 2]
And mercy, You've shown us mercy
Your mercy is the action
Of a heart full of compassion
Mercy, we will show mercy
Mercy is the action
Of a heart full of compassion
[Interlude]
[Bridge]
You delight in mercy
Your mercy leads us to repent
Because of Your forgiveness
We can live with no offense
We're brought into salvation
By Your truth that's come and set us free
Your love withheld nothing
It took a debt I could not pay
You delight in mercy
Oh, Your mercy leads us to repent
Because of Your forgiveness
We can live with no offense
We're brought into salvation
By Your truth that's come and set us free
Your love withheld nothing
It took a debt I could not pay, oh-ohh yes!
[Chorus 2]
And mercy, You've shown us mercy
Oh-ohh, Your mercy is the action
Of a heart full of compassion
Mercy, we will show mercy, oh Jesus
Because mercy is the action
Of a heart full of compassion
