[Verse 1]
Lord have mercy
Me a sinner
Lord have mercy
Me a sinner
I only knew shame
Till I saw Your face
You gripped my heart
In that broken place
The thorn in my side
The torture in my mind
I tried to hide
You still found my life
[Chorus]
Lord have mercy
On me a sinner
I bring this pain
To the feet of the Healer
I only knew shame
Till You called my name
Lord have mercy
On me a sinner
[Verse 2]
Nights I wrestle
With an empty bed
Old regrets
Louder than my breath
But Your whisper cuts
Through the fear and fire
Says “Child
Come rest
Drop that funeral choir”
[Chorus]
Lord have mercy
On me a sinner
I bring this pain
To the feet of the Healer
I only knew shame
Till You called my name
Lord have mercy
On me a sinner
[Bridge]
If grace is a river
Let it cover my scars (oh Lord)
If love is a promise
Hold my shaking heart
I’m clinging to mercy
I’m falling on grace
I’m laying my torture
In Your wounded hands today
[Chorus]
Lord have mercy
On me a sinner
I bring this pain
To the feet of the Healer
I only knew shame
Till You called my name
Lord have mercy
On me a sinner (on me)
Lord have mercy
On me a sinner
