Mercy Meets My Pain

How long will you make me sit waiting to hear Your voice?

Can You hear me calling or am I background noise?

And with all this emptiness around me I cannot feel Your joy

And I don't understand, help me understand...

That there's no light without the darkness

And without my struggle, I can't be given peace

And through all the chaos and madness, You are working for my gain

And in my darkest night is where Your mercy meets my pain

I'm looking for purpose in the life I'm living

Surely there must be more

I'm just waiting for peace

For the calm after the storm

And I run unto You, You give me rest

Sustain me in my brokenness

When I don't understand, you help me understand

When I don't understand, you help me understand...

That there's no light without the darkness

And without my struggle, I can't be given peace

Through all the chaos and madness, You are working for my gain

And in my darkest night is where Your mercy...

Meets me when I'm lost and broken

You find me on my knees

Crying out

"My God, come quickly! When will You rescue me?"

In my weakness, You remind me of shelter from the rain...

That there's no light without the darkness

And without my struggle, I can't be given peace

Through all the chaos and madness, You are working for my gain

And in my darkest night...

'Cause in my darkest night is where Your mercy meets my pain
