[Verse 1]
The kindness of heaven is here in Your presence
You move with compassion, You reach out to pull me closer
Your river of mercy, a stream never-ending
The strength of Your love will carry me

[Chorus]
Who can stand against?
My God has strong and open hands
That cover me in mercy
He covers me in mercy
Your mercy covers me

[Verse 2]
Out of the ashes eternity promised
Extravagant goodness and patience abundant
I've been forgiven, my failures forgotten
The strength of Your love will carry me

[Chorus]
Who can stand against?
My God has strong and open hands
That cover me in mercy
He covers me in mercy
Your mercy covers me
Who can stand against?
My God has strong and open hands
That cover me in mercy
He covers me in mercy
[Bridge]
Compassion, forgiveness
The strength in my weakness
Devoted, sufficient
Your love bridged the distance
Compassion, forgiveness
The strength in my weakness
Devoted, sufficient
Your love bridged the distance
Compassion, forgiveness
The strength in my weakness
Devoted, sufficient
Your love bridged the distance
Oh, what kindness in Your presence
My salvation

[Chorus]
(Who can stand?) Who can stand against?
(My God) My God has strong and open hands
(That cover me) That cover me in mercy
(He covers me) He covers me in mercy
(He covers me) Your mercy covers me
Who can stand against? (who can stand against?)
My God has strong and open hands
(That cover me) That cover me in mercy
He covers me in mercy
Your mercy covers me
