Lyrics

Mercy

[Verse]

Mercy on me, oh, say that I'm forgiven

And wrap your arms around me

To your goodness I surrender

Without mercy, where is goodness?

Won't you have mercy on me?

[Verse]

Mercy on me, oh, say that I'm forgiven

And wrap your arms around me

To your goodness I surrender

Without mercy, where is goodness?

Won't you have mercy on me?
