The Hymn - O What Mercy

O what mercy has been granted me
 for the filthy rags I've worn
 clothed in sacrifice to great to speak
 and of new life reborn
 still my darkness veils all the victories
 that you've seen me through
 the prisons I have counted each
 a wall of sin so high I cannot reach
 Jesus Christ who died for me
 gave his life so that I could be free
 he gave his life so that I could be free
 They come to you weary broken torn
 and lay their sorrows at your feet
 parched and hungry for a taste of joy and from suffering find retreat
 but our silence veils all the answers
 that they seek from you
 children cry to see your face
 poor men desperate for your arms of grace
 Jesus Christ who died for them
 by your scars we pray their wounds will mend
 by your scars we pray their wounds will mend
 Our God of grace
 our deliverer
 to you be glory and fame
 all our treasures we have counted loss
 for to surrender is to gain
 but your hope unveils all the answers
 and reveals the Truth
 by the cross you made a way
 you will bring us to your home one day
 Jesus Christ for us you died
 gave the world Your love though we denied
