“MERCY” (Lyrics) — Trip Lee feat Kirk Franklin

 

[Intro]

Yeah, I dedicate this song to those that miss being dedicated

The world robbed you of your spiritual romance and you want to renew your vows

Jesus waits at the altar for you

He’s not wearing a watch, so you still have time

[Verse 1]

Heavy heart at the start of the day light

In the sun or the rain, you will still shine

Wipe my eyes when I cry be my delight

When in doubt, then I realize

In the dark there you are

You’re still good, You’re still good

Life gеts hard falls apart

You’re still good, You’re still good

[Pre-Chorus]

I been shooting for the stars (shoot)

Just tryna bе where you are

It don’t matter what it cost (shoot)

I would rather lose it all

[Chorus]

Your mercy endureth forever

Your mercy endureth forever

[Verse 2: Trip Lee]

My life hit me, knocked me down you know I’m dizzy

Tried to sit me down in misery permanently

Sent me pain to keep me busy, I just juke like, “you can’t get me”

I get down like “can He hear me?” Can you feel me?

I know I be dodging arrows

I can’t conquer pharaohs

But He got His eye on sparrows

I can’t roam, it’s like I’m always home

Even in lion dens with friends I win, I’m not alone

[Pre-Chorus]

I been shooting for the stars (shoot)

Just tryna be where you are

It don’t matter what it cost (shoot)

I would rather lose it all

[Chorus]

Your mercy endureth forever

Your mercy endureth forever

[Verse 3: Trip Lee]

I sit back and oh I think, I’m so dirty, I know I stank

I need mercy, I know I rank beneath Him help me please Him, Spirit

Still I know He takes delight in me I’m wrong, He made me right

Remade me, saved me, gave me light

I need him, I can’t leave him, hear it

I know I can’t dive in shallow

Waters, help me follow

Your grace away from gallows

Watch me shoot my shot for the stars all I got

Is these promises from my Lord that’s my lot

[Pre-Chorus]

I been shooting for the stars (shoot)

Just tryna be where you are

It don’t matter what it cost (shoot)

I would rather lose it all

[Bridge]

We’ll sing forever

We’ll sing forever

We’ll sing forever

We’ll sing forever

[Chorus]

Your mercy endureth forever

Your mercy endureth forever

[Outro: Kirk Franklin]

That restlessness in your heart is because heaven is calling

Yeah, yeah you feel it, we’re strangers and aliens

Don’t get too comfortable, don’t get too fitted here. You’re different, you’re chosen, you’re special, you’re His

And He’s jealous for you. He’s desperate for you

He wants you to understand there’s something greater is in you

And it’s coming, put Him first, seek Him first

That’s your life, it’s not just what you believe

It’s who you are. You were destined for this, destined for Him

Hallelujah
