Mercy Today

Mercy Today
You didn't come to call the righteous,the neat or the clean.You didn't come to ask perfection.You'd never ask that of me.You didn't come to bring peace,but came with a sword.You came to save the sick and wounded sinner,that's me, Lord.
There's no limit to grace today.No limit to how You save and You set me down in a wide open space and say,
“Mercy today. Mercy today.”
Mercy today. Mercy today.
La, la hallelujah!La, la hallelujah!
You want my compassion.Away with sacrifice.You clean all condemnation;my willful desires.You are unchanging.What can man do?Really, what can man do to mewhen my Savior is You?
There's no limit to grace today.No limit to how You save and You set me down in a wide open space and say,
“Mercy today. Mercy today.”
Mercy today. Mercy today.
La, la hallelujah!La, la hallelujah!
Mercy triumphs over judgment!Mercy triumphs over my will!Mercy, fall down like rain andI'll be still.I'll be still.Mercy today, mercy today,mercy today, mercy today.
There's no limit to grace today.No limit to how You save and You set me down in a wide open space and say,
“Mercy today. Mercy today.”
Mercy today. Mercy today.
La, la hallelujah!La, la hallelujah!
