Mercy

(album: Old Church Basement - 2021)

I'm living proof
Of what the mercy of God can do
If You knew me then
You'd believe me now
He turned my whole life upside down
He took the old and He made it new
That's just what the mercy of God can do

Now I'm alive to tell the story
How I've overcome
It's His goodness and mercy
And the power of His blood
I'm so glad that my freedom
Wasn't based on what I've done
The goodness and mercy
And the power of the blood
So much power in the blood

I thought I deserved
To be six feet beneath the earth
For all the things I've done
The things I've said
The choices made that I regret
Oh, I would still be lost
But for the mercy of God

Now I'm alive to tell the story
How I've overcome
It's His goodness and mercy
And the power of the blood
I'm so glad that my freedom
Wasn't based on what I've done
But the goodness and mercy
And the power of the blood

Was the cross meant for me
That my Savior carried?
Now I've been made free
By the mercy of God
Was the grave meant for me
Where my sin lay buried?
Now I stand redeemed
By the mercy of God

Was the cross meant for me
That my Savior carried?
Now I've been made free
By the mercy of God
Was the grave meant for me
Where my sin lay buried?
Now I stand redeemed
By the mercy of God

And I'm alive to tell the story
How I've overcome
It's His goodness and mercy
And the power of the blood
I'm so glad that my freedom
Wasn't based on what I've done
It's His goodness and mercy
And the power of the blood
It's His goodness and mercy
And the power of the blood
Goodness and mercy
And the power of the blood
The power of the blood
There's power in the blood, power in the blood
You'll heal today
There's power in the blood, power in the blood

That's the power in the blood (The power in the blood)
That's the power in the blood (The power in the blood)
That's the power in the blood (The power in the blood)
That's the power in the blood (The power in the blood)

Oh, wonder working power (That's the power in the blood)
Wonder working power (That's the power in the blood)
Can You bring your power? (That's the power in the blood)
Oh, chain breaking power (That's the power in the blood)
Shackle loosening power (That's the power in the blood)
I know that I know, I know (That's the power in the blood)

(The power in the blood)
(The power in the blood)
(The power in the blood)

Was the cross meant for me
That my Savior carried?
Now I've been made free
By the mercy of God
Was the grave meant for me
Where my sin lay buried?
Now I stand redeemed
By the mercy of God

Was the cross meant for me
That my Savior carried?
Now I've been made free
By the mercy of God
Was the grave meant for me
Where my sin lay buried?
Now I stand redeemed
By the mercy of God

Wash away my sin
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can wash away my sins?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again?
(Nothing but the blood of Jesus)
(Nothing but the blood of Jesus)
Oh, nothing but the blood of Jesus
