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
