I once was lost, I walked away
The road was dark, I could not see
My hope was gone
The pain was real
But Your mercy
You saw my steps, You felt my fears
You heard my cries
You caught my tears
Arms open wide You ran to me
With Your mercy
Your mercy, Your mercy
I stand before my King
And bow my heart to sing
You saved me, You raised me
You died so I could live
No greater love than this
Your mercy
You give me life beyond the grave
My deepest shame is cast away
You sing a song that covers me
It’s Your mercy
Your loving kindness
Leads me to repentance
Your loving kindness
Leads me to repentance
Lord, let Your kindness
Lead us to repentance
Lord, let Your kindness
Lead us to repentance
