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

Chorus
i was saved by the Mercy Man
He touched me heart
He helped me understand
that there was shelter and unfailing love
if i'd just take the hand
hand of the Mercy Man

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
and that's when i heard Mercy call

Chorus 2x

but i was wrong - i was mistaken
what i thought was the truth
was not the truth at all

Chorus 2x

He took my hand
holds my heart
the Mercy Man
