All Because of Mercy

I could stand here

And try to tell you

I found my way here on my own

Brought to life this heart of stone

Made up my own mind

To change my own life

Workin' my own way to good

As if anybody could

But the truth is I've been broken since my very first breath

And the truth is I've been wanderin' since my very first step

I know the only reason

I can stand here unashamed

It's not because I'm worthy

It's all because of mercy

There's no way that I could earn it

Praise God, my debt is paid

It's not because I'm worthy

It's all because of mercy (oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

(Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

I still remember

The day He found me

Six feet under all my shame

I heard Him call me out by name

Hallelujah

The cross has spoken

Jesus, my Savior, bled and died

To bring this dead man back to life

I know the only reason

I can stand here unashamed

It's not because I'm worthy

It's all because of mercy

There's no way that I could earn it

Praise God, my debt is paid

It's not because I'm worthy

It's all because of mercy (oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

It's all because of mercy (oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

I'm just as desperate for you now

As I was back then

If I ever should forget

Remind me once again

I'm just as desperate for You now

As I was back then

If I ever should forget

Remind me once again

I know the only reason

I can stand here unashamed

It's not because I'm worthy

It's all because of mercy

There's no way that I could earn it

Praise God, my debt is paid

It's not because I'm worthy

It's all because of mercy (oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

Because of Your mercy (oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

Oh, hallelujah (oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

Oh, hallelujah (oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

It's all because of mercy
