I couldn't find myself today; I got lost in reflection,
Retracing steps all along the way, back to days with no direction,
I wasn't wishing for those times to come again,
No, it was more of a reminder of where, and what, and how I'd been,
Living my life without connection to the one who'd always seen within, who knew my heart and its intentions,
He said that all could be forgiven if I could trust in one who'd risen...and that's when his mercy came to me.
I was saved by the mercy man,
He touched me heart,
He helped me understand that there was shelter in unfailing love, if I'd just take the hand...hand of the mercy man.
And all these expectations that I'd placed upon myself: how I would conquer the giants with the help of no one else,
But I was wrong, I was mistaken,
What I thought was the truth was not the truth at all,
That's when I heard mercy call.
I was saved by the mercy man,
He touched me heart,
He helped me understand that there was shelter in unfailing love, if I'd just take the hand...hand of the mercy man,
I was saved by the mercy man,
He touched me heart,
He helped me understand that there was shelter in unfailing love, if I'd just take the hand...hand of the mercy man.

He took my hand,
Holds my heart,
The mercy man, (mercy, mercy, mercy man)
He took my hand,
Holds my heart,
The mercy man, (mercy, mercy, mercy man)
He took my hand,
Holds my heart,
The mercy man, (mercy, mercy, mercy man)
He took my hand,
Holds my heart,
The mercy man,
He took my hand,
Holds my heart,
The mercy man,
(fade)
