Mercy Came Running
Once there was a holy place
Evidence of God's Embrace
And I can alost see Mercy's face
Pressed against the way
Looking down with loving eyes
Mercy must have realized
That once His blood was sacrifised
Freedom would prevail
And as the sky grew dark
And the earth began to shake
Justice no longer in the way
Mercy came running
Like a prisoner set free
Past all my failures
To the point of my need
And the sin that I carried
Was all I could see
And when I could not reach mercy
Mercy came running to me
Once there was a broken heart
Way to human from the start
And all the years left you torn apart
Hopeless and afraid
Walls I never meant to build
Left this prisoner unfulfilled
Freedom called but even still
It seems so far away
I was bound by the chains
Of the wages of my sin
And just when I felt like giving in.
Ohhhh
Mercy came running
Like a prisoner set free
Past all my failures
To the point of my need
When the sin that I carried
Was all I could see
When I could not reach mercy
Mercy came running to me
Sometimes I still feel so far
{So far from were I really should be yeah}
He gently calls to my heart
Just to remind me
Mercy came running
Like a prisoner set free
Past all my failures
To the point of my need
And the sin that I carried
Was all I could see
When I could not reach the mercy
Mercy came running to me
Like a prisoner set free
Past all my failures
To the point of my need
And the sin that I carried
Was all I could see
When I could not reach mercy
Mercy came running to me
Mercy came running to me
Evidence of God's Embrace
And I can alost see Mercy's face
Pressed against the way
Looking down with loving eyes
Mercy must have realized
That once His blood was sacrifised
Freedom would prevail
And as the sky grew dark
And the earth began to shake
Justice no longer in the way
Mercy came running
Like a prisoner set free
Past all my failures
To the point of my need
And the sin that I carried
Was all I could see
And when I could not reach mercy
Mercy came running to me
Once there was a broken heart
Way to human from the start
And all the years left you torn apart
Hopeless and afraid
Walls I never meant to build
Left this prisoner unfulfilled
Freedom called but even still
It seems so far away
I was bound by the chains
Of the wages of my sin
And just when I felt like giving in.
Ohhhh
Mercy came running
Like a prisoner set free
Past all my failures
To the point of my need
When the sin that I carried
Was all I could see
When I could not reach mercy
Mercy came running to me
Sometimes I still feel so far
{So far from were I really should be yeah}
He gently calls to my heart
Just to remind me
Mercy came running
Like a prisoner set free
Past all my failures
To the point of my need
And the sin that I carried
Was all I could see
When I could not reach the mercy
Mercy came running to me
Like a prisoner set free
Past all my failures
To the point of my need
And the sin that I carried
Was all I could see
When I could not reach mercy
Mercy came running to me
Mercy came running to me
