I WAS JUST A CHILD WHEN I FELT THE SAVIOR LEADING
I WAS DRAWN TO WHAT I COULD NOT UNDERSTAND
AND FOR THE CAUSE OF CHRIST I SPENT MY DAYS BELIEVING
WHAT HE'D HAVE ME BE IS WHO I AM
AS I'VE COME TO SEE THE WEAKER SIDE OF ME
I'VE REALIZED HIS GRACE IS WHAT I NEED
WHEN SIN DEMANDED JUSTICE FOR MY SOUL
CH1
MERCY SAID NO I'M NOT GONNA LET YOU GO
I'M NOT GONNA LET YOU SLIP AWAY YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE AFRAID
MERCY SAID NO SIN WILL NEVER TAKE CONTROL
LIFE AND DEATH STOOD FACE TO FACE
WHEN DARKNESS TRIED TO STEAL MY HEART AWAY
THANK YOU JESUS MERCY SAID NO
FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE SENT HIS SON TO SAVE US
FROM THE CROSS HE BUILT A BRIDGE TO SET US FREE
BUT DEEP WITHIN OUR HEARTS THERE IS STILL A WAR OF RAGES
THAT MAKES THE SACRAFICE SO HARD TO SEE
AS MIDNIGHT FELL ON CRUCIFICTION DAY
THE LIGHT OF HOPE SEEMED SO FAR AWAY
AS EVIL TRIED TO STOP REDEMPTIONS FLOW (to CH1)
AND NOW WHEN HEAVEN LOOKS AT ME IT'S THROUGH THE BLOOD OF JESUS
REMINDING ME OF ONE DAY LONG AGO
CH2
MERCY SAID NO I'M NOT GONNA LET YOU GO
I'M NOT GONNA LET YOU SLIP AWAY YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE AFRAID
MERCY SAID NO SIN WILL NEVER TAKE CONTROL
LIFE AND DEATH STOOD FACE TO FACE
WHEN DARKNESS TRIED TO STEAL MY HEART AWAY
THANK YOU JESUS MERCY SAID NO (repeat to 'LIFE AND DEATH...')
