I’ve been losing sleep, my mind’s been racing,
Bills stacking up, this world feels crazy.
Scrolling through a screen just to numb the pain,
Everybody smiling, but it don’t feel the same.
Pressure in my chest, can’t catch my breath,
Trying to do right, but I slip again.
I’ve been chasing peace in all the wrong ways,
Lord, I need Your grace today.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I fall, You don’t walk away,
You lift me up, though I disobey.
I’m tired of pretending I’m fine inside,
So I’m laying it down, my pride.
[Chorus]
Lord, show me mercy, I’m broken inside,
This world keeps pulling, I’m losing my fight.
Take these burdens I can’t control,
Heal my heart and save my soul.
Lord, show me mercy, I’m reaching for You,
Through the chaos, You’re the truth.
Yeah, Lord, show me mercy…
Show me mercy tonight.
[Verse 2]
People trying to shine but they fade so fast,
Living in the future, stuck in the past.
We all wear masks, afraid to be seen,
Drowning in doubt, chasing the dream.
I’ve hurt some hearts, I’ve burned some bridges,
Now I’m trying to rebuild, but I’m still in the trenches.
I need Your light to guide my way,
Through another long, dark day.
[Pre-Chorus]
I know I’m flawed, but I still believe,
Your love’s the air I breathe.
When the world says I’m not enough,
You remind me of Your endless love.
[Chorus]
Lord, show me mercy, I’m broken inside,
This world keeps pulling, I’m losing my fight.
Take these burdens I can’t control,
Heal my heart and save my soul.
Lord, show me mercy, I’m reaching for You,
Through the chaos, You’re the truth.
Yeah, Lord, show me mercy…
Show me mercy tonight.
[Bridge]
For the single mom just trying to survive,
For the man who’s working two jobs to get by,
For the kid who feels like he don’t belong,
Lord, lift them up — make them strong.
For the ones who’ve lost their way,
Whose dreams faded to gray,
We all need a second chance,
So Lord, let Your mercy dance.
[Final Chorus – Strong, Soulful]
Lord, show us mercy, we’re all broken inside,
This world keeps spinning, we’re trying to find
A little bit of hope, a little bit of peace,
In Your arms, we find release.
Lord, show us mercy, shine Your light through,
We’re reaching out, all for You.
Yeah, Lord, show us mercy…
Show us mercy tonight.
[Outro – Emotional fade]
Show me mercy…
Show us mercy…
Lord, we’re calling on You tonight.
