You Are Mercy

Intro

Oh-oh, oh-oh (yeah)

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Verse

You traced the map of sunrise on the edge of every day

Painter of the small and vast, you name the waves and clay

Keeper of the promises I can't keep on my own

You count the tears I hide, you lead the wandering home

Pre-chorus

Strong as a fortress, gentle as the rain (gentle)

Near when I'm broken, steady through the pain (steady)

Chorus

You are mercy, you are might, you are morning, you are light

You are justice, you are peace, you are nearer than my breath

You are mercy, you are might, you are morning, you are light

You are keeper of my days, you are faithful unto death

You are mercy, you are might, you are morning, you are light

You are justice, you are peace, you are nearer than my breath

You are mercy, you are might, you are morning, you are light

You are keeper of my days, you are faithful unto death (yeah)

Verse

You bend the rules of chaos with a steady, patient hand

You raise the lowly out of dust, you build where ruins stand

You speak and seasons answer, you call the sparrow home

A friend who knows my name, I never walk alone

Pre-chorus

Tender as sunrise, righteous as the sea (righteous)

Maker of the promise, you make a way for me (make a way)

Chorus

You are mercy, you are might, you are morning, you are light

You are justice, you are peace, you are nearer than my breath

You are mercy, you are might, you are morning, you are light

You are keeper of my days, you are faithful unto death

You are mercy, you are might, you are morning, you are light

You are justice, you are peace, you are nearer than my breath

You are mercy, you are might, you are morning, you are light

You are keeper of my days, you are faithful unto death (ah-ah)

Bridge

Oh—oh—oh, mighty hand and open arms (open arms)

Oh—oh—oh, gentle voice that calls me home (calls me home)

Rock that won't be moved (won't be moved), flame that still warms (still warms)

Name above all names, you make the broken whole (yeah)
