Merciful
Rebecca St. James · Transform [2000]
Merciful God
We confess
That we have sinned against You
Merciful God
We confess
That we have not loved You with our whole heart
In what we have done and left undone
In what we have done and left undone
We will lay down
We humbly repent
And we cry out for You God
Have mercy on us Merciful God
Forgive us now
That we may delight in Your will
And walk in Your ways
And lift high Your name
And walk in Your ways
And lift high Your name
We will lay down
We humbly repent
And we cry out for You God
Have mercy on us
We confess
That we have sinned against You
Merciful God
We confess
That we have not loved You with our whole heart
In what we have done and left undone
In what we have done and left undone
We will lay down
We humbly repent
And we cry out for You God
Have mercy on us Merciful God
Forgive us now
That we may delight in Your will
And walk in Your ways
And lift high Your name
And walk in Your ways
And lift high Your name
We will lay down
We humbly repent
And we cry out for You God
Have mercy on us
Merciful
