Mercy
Endless Mercy: A Hallelujah of Redemption
Lyrics
I will kneel in the dust
I express humility and submission.
At the foot of the cross,
I position myself before the symbol of sacrifice.
Where mercy paid for me.
My redemption is bought through mercy.
Where the wrath I deserve,
The deserved punishment is no longer present.
It is gone, it has passed.
The wrath has passed, and forgiveness is granted.
Your blood has hidden me.
The speaker is covered and protected by your sacrificial blood.
Mercy, mercy,
Repetition of the plea for mercy and a commitment to eternal praise.
As endless as the sea.
-I'll sing Your hallelujah
-For all eternity.
-We will lift up the cup
Partaking in communion, reflecting on God's love, and the removal of shame through the crucifixion.
And the bread we will break,
-Remembering Your love.
-We were fallen from grace,
-But You took on our shame
-And nailed it to a cross.
-Mercy, mercy,
Reiteration of the enduring nature of mercy and the pledge to sing hallelujah forever.
As endless as the sea.
-I'll sing Your hallelujah
-For all eternity.
-Mercy, mercy,
-As endless as the sea.
-I'll sing Your hallelujah
-For all eternity.
-May I never lose the wonder,
Expressing a desire to never lose awe for the wonder of God's mercy and committing to sing hallelujah.
Oh, the wonder of Your mercy.
-May I sing Your hallelujah.
-Hallelujah, Amen.
-May I never lose the wonder,
Continued emphasis on maintaining a sense of wonder and praising with hallelujah.
Oh, the wonder of Your mercy.
-May I sing Your hallelujah.
-Hallelujah, Amen.

Revisiting the image of kneeling at the cross, where mercy was secured.
At the foot of the cross,
-Where mercy paid for me.
