by Apostle Gabriel Cross
I was lost in my own order
Consumed with my own love
A Pharisee, a Sadducee needing to be free
Desiring to be forgiven but harboring unforgiveness
Trying to make others perfect, never seeing the flaws in myself
I wonder how I could have been so blind
And how would I had ever known
When all that I could ever see
Were the person’s faults not their needs.
But Mercy found me…
I was lost in a world of intolerance, a world of impatience;
But Mercy found me…
Strengthened me where I was weak,
Healed me where I was scorned and becomes new every morn.
Great deliverance he gives the King,
And gives mercy to David and his seed
Mercy
I was trying to rescue others
Until your mercy came and found me.
Holding others to a standard that I couldn’t live myself
I had salvation and relation, but self-deception too
Ministering to their actions instead of to their hearts
For all the paths of the Lord are mercy and His truth
Tell me how could I be so blind and how would I’d ever known
When all that I could ever see
Were their faults not their needs.
But Mercy found me…
I was lost in a world of intolerance a world of impatience
But it found me
Strengthened me where I was weak,
Healed me where I was torn
And becomes new every morn.
Great deliverance he gives the King,
He gives mercy to David and his seed
Oh, I was trying to rescue others
Till your mercy came and found me.
Why do I keep allowing the same to affect me?
How can I stop doing what seems to beset me?
When will it end, so I can live again?
What is it Lord?
The answer is mercy, mercy, mercy me.
Mercy, mercy, mercy me.
I was weak but Mercy strengthened me
I was sick but your mercy healed me.
Your mercies are new every morning no matter what we did or did not do yesterday.
