Be Merciful
[Chorus:]
Oh lord [Oh lord]
Mhmm, oh lord [Oh lord]
Be merciful [Be merciful unto me]
Be merciful [Be merciful unto me]
Oh lord [Oh lord]
Mhmm, oh lord [Oh lord]
Be merciful [Be merciful unto me]
That’s all I’m asking you [Be merciful unto me]

[Verse:]
Listen
When my conduct and my behavior
Would grant to me the least of your favor
When I go left, when you told me to go right
When the things that I do are displeasing in your sight
Please, lord, Please, lord
Your child don’t deny
But be attentive to my prayer
And hear my oboе cry

[Chorus:]
Oh, oh, oh lord [Oh lord]
Please, oh lord [Oh lord]
Be mеrciful [Be merciful unto me]
That’s all I’m asking you today, lord [Be merciful unto me]
Oh, lord [Oh, lord]
Oh, oh lord [Oh lord]
Be merciful [Be merciful unto me]
I know you’re able to do anything [Be merciful unto me]
For my soul, my soul trusteth in thee [For my soul trusteth in thee]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes
My soul, in thee [For my soul trusts in thee]

Lord, your mercy I see [Lord, your mercy I see]
When I fail you and your commandments I don’t keep [Lord, I seek your favor]
Lord, deliver me because I know you’re able [Lord, your mercy I see]
Sometime I know I fail you and your commandments I don’t keep [Lord, I seek your favor]
For I know you are my shepherd, my keeper, and my savior

[Chorus:]
Oh, oh, oh, oh lord [Oh lord]
Please, oh lord [Oh lord]
Be merciful [Be merciful unto me]
Please, lord [Be merciful unto me]
Oh lord [Oh lord]
Oh, oh lord [Oh lord]
Be merciful [Be merciful unto me]
I know you can if you will [Be merciful unto me]

For my soul, my soul trusteth, in thee [For my soul trusteth in thee]
Somebody needs his mercy, you can’t make it without him, no, no [For my soul trusteth]
In thee [In thee]
When you don’t have no one else to turn to, yeah [For my soul trusteth]
In thee [In thee]
When you walk the floor all night long, nobody else to call on
My soul trusteth [For my soul trusteth]
In thee [In thee]
