Mercy Tree

On a hill called Calvary

There stands an endless mercy tree

Every broken weary soul

Find your rest and be made whole

Stripes of blood that stain its frame

Shed to wash away our shame

From the scars, pure love released

Salvation by the mercy tree

In the sky between two thieves

Hung the blameless prince of peace

Bruised and battered, scarred and scorned

Sacred head pierced by our thorns

“It is finished,” was His cry

The perfect Lamb was crucified

His sacrifice, our victory

Our Savior chose the mercy tree

Hope went dark, that violent day

The whole earth quaked at Loveʼs display

Three days silent in the ground

This body born for heavenʼs crown

But on that bright and glorious day

When heaven opened up the grave

Heʼs alive and risen indeed!

Oh praise Him for The Mercy Tree

[CHORUS:]

Death has died, Love has won

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Jesus Christ has overcome

He has risen from the dead

One day soon weʼll see His face

And every tear Heʼll wipe away

No more pain or suffering

Oh praise Him for The Mercy Tree

[CHORUS X2]

On a hill called Calvary

There stands an endless mercy tree
