"Beggin' for Mercy"

“Beggin’ for Mercy”

(Hard Rock – Fast tempo, palm-muted verses, soaring chorus, twin lead bridge)

(Verse 1)

I was born with a rebel heart

Steel in my veins, tearing truth apart

Chased every fire that burned my name

Danced with the devil, baptized in shame

Built my throne on broken lives

Cut too deep with sharpened lies

Thought I was king of my own disease

Now I’m down on shattered knees.

(Pre-Chorus)

I ran from the light

I cursed Your name

But grace kept calling

Through the flame.

(Chorus)

I’m beggin’ for mercy..beggin’ for mercy!

Down in the dirt where the guilty bleed

Beggin’ for mercy..beggin’ for mercy!

Is there forgiveness left for me?

I crossed the line, I broke the code

Carried the weight of this heavy load

But if Your blood still sets men free

I’m beggin’ for mercy —

Have mercy on me!

(Verse 2)

Hands still stained with yesterday

Haunted by the price I paid

Every road led straight to hell

Built my prison, locked the cell

Heard a whisper through the noise

Not condemnation — just a voice

“Son, My grace is deeper still

No sin too strong, no heart I can’t heal.”

(Pre-Chorus)

I fought the truth

I chose my pride

But nails were driven

For my crimes.

(Chorus)

I’m beggin’ for mercy..beggin’ for mercy!

Down in the dirt where the guilty bleed

Beggin’ for mercy..beggin’ for mercy!

Is there forgiveness left for me?

I crossed the line, I broke the code

Carried the weight of this heavy load

But if Your blood still sets men free

I’m beggin’ for mercy —

Have mercy on me!

(Bridge (Breakdown – Half-time, heavy riff)

I thought I’d gone too far

Too lost to be found

But You left the ninety-nine

Just to track me down

Chains hit the floor

When I called Your name

The cross still stands

And grace remains.

(Guitar Solo Section)

(Twin harmony lead over driving rhythm)

(Final Chorus (Key lift / Double-time drums)

I’m beggin’ for mercy..beggin’ for mercy!

But now I stand in victory

Beggin’ for mercy..beggin’ for mercy!

Your forgiveness rescued me

Was dead in sin, now born again

Was blind but now I see

No longer beggin’ for mercy —

Your mercy lives in me!
