Have Mercy On Me Now

AlphabetLyrics.com


My heart was heavy with desperation
Just too ashamed to lift my head
Till all my chains were finally broken
As I prayed this sinner's prayer.

Oh god have mercy on me
God have mercy on me right now
'cause I just need a place
To lay my weary head
So god have mercy on me
Have mercy on me now
Have mercy on me now.

You weren't looking for a holy roller
With a point of pride to prove
But oh how, how irresistible to grace is failure
To hear a sinner singing god I need you.

So god have mercy on me
God have mercy on me right now
'cause I just need a place
To lay my weary head
And I just need a place
To raise my empty hands
So have mercy on me now.

When I was desperate for redemption
A drowning man all out of breath
You threw me more than just a lifeline
You took the wind right out of death
Like a dead man resurrected
Your spirit burning in my bones
Until I breathe the air of heaven
There's a song I won't let go.

God have mercy on me
God have mercy on me right now
'cause I just need a place
To lay my weary head
So god have mercy on me
Have mercy on me now.
