All Because of Mercy lyrics

I could stand here 

And try to tell you 

I found my way here on my own 

Brought to life this heart of stone 

Made up my own mind 

To change my own life 

Working my own way to good 

As if anybody could 

But the truth is I’ve been broken since my very first breath 

And the truth is I’ve been wandering since my very first step 

I know the only reason 

I can stand here unashamed 

Is not because I’m worthy 

It’s all because of mercy 

There’s no way that I could earn it 

Praise God my debt is paid 

It’s not because I’m worthy 

It’s all because of mercy 

Ohhh, oooo 

Ohhh, oooo 

I still remember 

The day He found me 

6 feet under all my shame 

I heard Him call me out by name 

Hallelujah 

The cross has spoken 

Jesus my Savior bled and died 

To bring this deadman back to life 

I know the only reason 

I can stand here unashamed 

Is not because I’m worthy 

It’s all because of mercy 

There’s no way that I could earn it 

Praise God my debt is paid 

It’s not because I’m worthy 

It’s all because of mercy 

Ohhh, oooo, it’s all because of mercy 

Ohhh, oooo 

Just as desperate for you now 

As I was back then 

If I ever should forget 

Remind me once again 

Just as desperate for you now 

As I was back then 

If I ever should forget 

Remind me once again 

I know the only reason 

I can stand here unashamed 

Is not because I’m worthy 

It’s all because of mercy 

There’s no way that I could earn it 

Praise God my debt is paid 

It’s not because I’m worthy 

It’s all because of mercy 

Ohhh, oooo, because of Your mercy 

Ohhh, oh Hallelujah 

Ohhh, oh Hallelujah 

It’s all because of mercy
