Lyrics Caedmon's Call

Caedmon's Call

Thy Mercy

Thy mercy, my God is the theme of my song

The joy of my heart and the boast of my tongue

Thy free grace alone from the first to the last

Hath won my affection and bound my soul fast

Without thy sweet mercy I could not live here

Sin would reduce me to utter despair

But through thy free goodness my spirit's revived

And he that first made me still keeps me alive

Thy mercy is more than a match for my heart

Which wonders to feel its own hardness depart

Dissolved by thy goodness I fall to the ground

And weep to the praise of the mercy I've found

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Great father of mercies thy goodness I own

And the covenant love of thy crucified son

All praise to the spirit whose whisper divine

Seals mercy and pardon and righteousness mine

All praise to the spirit whose whisper divine

Seals mercy and pardon and righteousness mine
