I Cry for Mercy Lyrics

Sometimes when I'm weary

And I lose my foothold

And I slip into a place

Where I have never been before

Frightened, disillusioned

Surrounded by shadows

Somehow I go beyond myself

And deep within my soul



I cry for mercy

I cry for mercy

I cry for mercy, O Lord



Worry, never worry

When you're filled with sorrow

Sometimes it takes a broken heart

To see the light of day

That's when I remember

How to see through shadows

I let His light shine through my prayer

And deep within my soul



I cry for mercy

I cry for mercy

I cry for mercy, O Lord



A cry for mercy always gets His ear

A cry for mercy chases away fear



I cry for mercy

I cry for mercy

I cry for mercy, O Lord



I cry for mercy

I cry for mercy

I cry for mercy, O Lord
