River of Mercy

[Verse 1]

I came in worn down

mud on my shoes

Fields at the fence line

calling the truth

You met me there

by the broken gate

Hands like a shelter

heavy with grace

[Pre-Chorus]

And I heard my name

in the old wind sing

Heaven was near

in the smallest thing

[Chorus]

River of mercy

carry me home

River of mercy

I am not alone

River of mercy

wash me clean

River of mercy

flow through me

[Verse 2]

My father was quiet

my mother would pray

Bread on the table

warm in the gray

I kept my distance

I kept my pride

You kept on walking

right by my side

[Pre-Chorus]

And I heard my name

in the old wind sing

Heaven was near

in the smallest thing

[Chorus]

River of mercy

carry me home

River of mercy

I am not alone

River of mercy

wash me clean

River of mercy

flow through me

[Bridge]

Take the long road

take the broken road

Take my hands now

take this heavy load

Male voice:

I will not leave you

I will not let go

Female voice:

You are my refuge

You are my home

[Final Chorus]

River of mercy

carry me home

River of mercy

I am not alone

River of mercy

wash me clean

River of mercy

flow through me

River of mercy

sing over me

River of mercy

set me free
