Mercy Tree
On a hill called Calvary
There stands an endless mercy tree
Every broken weary soul
Find your rest and be made whole
Stripes of blood that stain its frame
Shed to wash away our shame
From the scars pure love released
Salvation by the Mercy Tree
In the sky, between two thieves
Hung the blameless Prince of Peace
Bruised and battered, scarred and scorned
Sacred Hands pierced by our thorns
It is finished was his cry
The perfect Lamb was crucified
The sacrifice, our victory
Our Savior chose the Mercy Tree
Hope went dark that violent day
The whole earth quake at love's display
Three days silent in the ground
This body born for Heaven's crown
Heaven's crown, Heaven's crown
On that bright and glorious day
Heaven opened up the grave
He's alive and risen indeed
Praise him for the Mercy Tree
Death has died, and love has won!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Jesus Christ has overcome
He has risen from the dead,from the dead
From the dead,from the dead
From the dead,from the dead
One day soon We'll see His face
And every tear, He'll wipe away
No more pain or suffering
Oh Praise him for the Mercy Tree
Death has died, and love has won!
Sing hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Jesus Christ has overcome
He has risen from the dead
Death has died, and love has won!
Sing hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Jesus Christ has overcome
He has risen from the dead,from the dead
On a hill called Calvary
There stands an endless Mercy Tree
