Cry For Mercy
Go and learn what this means – it’s mercy I desire
The offerings you bring, are not what I require
I’m weary of your sacrifice
Of empty words and calloused lives
Oh, bring me no more alibis
Go and learn what this means
Come and hear what I say – you’ve been blinded by your pride
Drop the masquerade, I know who you are inside
You’ve trusted in what cannot save
You’ve looked to fallen flesh for praise
With hardened hearts and rebel ways
Come and hear what I say
Chorus:
Cry aloud for mercy – I will hear you, I will hear you
I’m calling to you, how long must I wait?
Come broken in My presence – I will heal you, I will heal you
Come wash your stains in endless streams of grace
Lift your eyes once again – stand in awe and be amazed
You’ve forgotten who I am, “Holy, Holy” is my Name
Have you not seen? Have you not heard?
My glory fills the universe
Be still and marvel at my worth
Lift your eyes once again
repeat chorus
In quietness and trust is your salvation
In repentance and in rest lies your strength
I’m the only One who can save you
Rend your heart, My child, don’t turn away
repeat chorus
Go and learn what this means…
