Mercy Is A Song

Mercy is a song singing to my heart

Telling me it's okay, come just as you are

I never heard a melody like the one that's singing over me

And I just wanna sing along 'cause mercy is a song

And freedom is a choir, swaying back and forth

Shining in the shadow of a stain-glassed Sunday morning

Shouting, "Hallelujah", yesterday is gone

Our freedom is a choir and mercy is a song

Singing, oh, there is a light for every soul

No matter where you've been, just come on home

Let all God's children sing along, hallelujah, chains are gone

Mercy is a song

Guilty is a lie spoken by a thief

Saying, "After what you've done, you don't deserve to be free"

But I can look him in the eye, and say, "This time, you're wrong"

'Cause guilty is a lie, oh, but mercy is a song

Singing, oh, there is a light for every soul

No matter where you've been, just come on home

Let all God's children sing along, hallelujah, chains are gone

Mercy is a song

The song of the redeemed, the ones set free

A glimpse of what waits for you and me

Heaven is a mansion, a promise in the sky

That one day we'll be singing with those angels up on high

And that old familiar melody, like we've known it all along

Ah, Heaven is a mansion and mercy is a song

Heaven is a mansion and mercy is a song

Oh, tell me, can you hear it?

Singing, oh, there is a light for every soul

No matter where you've been, just come on home

Let all God's children sing along, hallelujah, chains are gone

Let all God's children sing along, hallelujah, chains are gone

Mercy is a song

Mercy is a song

Mercy is a song
