mercy

i hear the Saviour say 'thy strength indeed is small'
child of weakness watch and pray
find in me thine all in all


Jesus paid it all
all to him i owe
my sin had left a crimson stain 
he washed it white as snow


oh now indeed i find
thy power and thine alone
can change the lepers spots
and melt this heart of stone


Jesus paid it all
all to him i owe
my sin had left a crimson stain
he washed it white as snow


and when before the throne
i stand in him complete
jesus died my soul to save
my lips shall still repeat


jesus paid it all
all to him i owe
my sin had left a crimson stain
he washed it white as snow


oh praise the one who paid my debt and raised this life up from the dead




mercy - 
1. Compassion or forgiveness shown toward someone whom it is within one's power to punish or harm

2. An event to be grateful for, esp. because its occurrence prevents something unpleasant or provides relief from suffering


i do not have to beg for mercy
it is mine
graciously mine
