Mercy // Elevation + Maverick City

I’m living proof

Of what the mercy of God can do

If you knew me then

You’d believe me now

He turned my whole life upside down

He took the old and He made it new

That’s just what the mercy of God can do

Now I’m alive to tell the story

How I’ve overcome

It’s His goodness and mercy

And the power of His blood

I’m so glad that my freedom

Wasn’t based on what I’ve done

But His goodness and mercy

And the power of the blood

Thought I deserved

To be six feet beneath the earth

For all the things I’ve done

The things I’ve said

The choices made that I regret

Oh I would still be lost

But for the mercy of God

Was the cross meant for me

That my Savior carried

Now I’ve been made free

By the mercy of God

Was the grave meant for me

Where my sin lay buried

Now I stand redeemed

By the mercy of God
