Mercy Came Running

Once there was a holy place

Evidence of Gods embrace

And i can almost see mercys face

Pressed against the veil

Looking down with longing eyes

Mercy must have realized

That once His blood was sacrificed

Freedom would prevail

And as the sky grew dark

And the earth began to shake

With Justice no longer in the way

Chorus

Mercy came running like a prisoner set free

Past all my failures to the point of my need

When the sin that i carried was all i could see

And when i could not reach mercy

Mercy came running to me

Once there was a broken heart

Way to human from the start

And all the years left it torn apart

Hopeless and afraid

Walls i never meant to build

Left this prisoner unfulfilled

Freedom called but even still

It seemed so far away

I was bound by the chains

From the wages of my sin

Just when i felt like giving in

Chorus

Sometimes I still feel so far

So far from where i really should be

He gently calls to my heart

Just to remind me

Chorus2X(to the end)
