Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Sun comes up on the bayou road

Dust on my boots and a heart too slow

Mama said, child, don’t carry that load

Lay it down where the river goes

[Verse 2]

Pecan trees in the heavy air

Old tin roof and a folding chair

I been lost, but I’m right here now

With a bent-knee prayer and a lifted brow

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, I feel that mercy rolling in

Like water on my skin

Oh, I hear that heaven on the wind

And I’m letting go again

[Chorus]

Amen, amen

(amen)

Hold me up again

Amen, amen

(amen)

Wash me clean within

South wind blow

Let my troubles go

Amen, amen

I’m coming home

[Verse 3]

Friday night and the juke joint hum

But I found my peace where the saints come from

Back porch light and a screen door song

I been weak, but I kept on strong

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, I feel that mercy rolling in

Like water on my skin

Oh, I hear that heaven on the wind

And I’m letting go again

[Chorus]

Amen, amen

(amen)

Hold me up again

Amen, amen

(amen)

Wash me clean within

South wind blow

Let my troubles go

Amen, amen

I’m coming home

[Bridge]

If the devil comes round, let him find me kneeling

If the tears come down, let them keep on healing

From the pine woods out to the river bend

I was bound for grace, and I still am

[Chorus]

Amen, amen

(amen)

Hold me up again

Amen, amen

(amen)

Wash me clean within

South wind blow

Let my troubles go

Amen, amen

I’m coming home

[Outro]

Home, home

I’m coming home

Amen, amen

I’m coming home [Verse 1]

Sun comes up on the bayou road

Dust on my boots and a heart too slow

Mama said, child, don’t carry that load

Lay it down where the river goes

[Verse 2]

Pecan trees in the heavy air

Old tin roof and a folding chair

I been lost, but I’m right here now

With a bent-knee prayer and a lifted brow

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, I feel that mercy rolling in

Like water on my skin

Oh, I hear that heaven on the wind

And I’m letting go again

[Chorus]

Amen, amen

(amen)

Hold me up again

Amen, amen

(amen)

Wash me clean within

South wind blow

Let my troubles go

Amen, amen

I’m coming home

[Verse 3]

Friday night and the juke joint hum

But I found my peace where the saints come from

Back porch light and a screen door song

I been weak, but I kept on strong

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, I feel that mercy rolling in

Like water on my skin

Oh, I hear that heaven on the wind

And I’m letting go again

[Chorus]

Amen, amen

(amen)

Hold me up again

Amen, amen

(amen)

Wash me clean within

South wind blow

Let my troubles go

Amen, amen

I’m coming home

[Bridge]

If the devil comes round, let him find me kneeling

If the tears come down, let them keep on healing

From the pine woods out to the river bend

I was bound for grace, and I still am

[Chorus]

Amen, amen

(amen)

Hold me up again

Amen, amen

(amen)

Wash me clean within

South wind blow

Let my troubles go

Amen, amen

I’m coming home

[Outro]

Home, home

I’m coming home

Amen, amen

I’m coming home
