CeCe Winans - Mercy Said No lyrics
[CeCe Winans - Mercy Said No lyrics]
I was just a child
When I felt the Savior leading
I was drawn to what I could not understand
And for the cause of Christ
I have spent my days believing
That what He'd have me be, is who I am
As I've come to see the weaker side of me
I realize His grace is what I'll need
When sin demanded justice for my soul
Mercy said, "No, I'm not gonna let you go
I'm not gonna let you slip away
You don't have to be afraid"
Mercy said, "No, sin will never take control"
Life and death stood face to face
Darkness tried to steal my heart away
Thank You, Jesus, mercy said, "No" ah, yeah
For God so loved the world
That He sent His Son to save us
From the cross He built a
Bridge to set us free
Oh, but deep within our hearts
There is still a war that rages
And makes a sacrifice so hard to see
As midnight fell upon the crucifixion day
The light of hope seemed oh so far away
As evil tried to stop redemption's flow
Mercy said, "No, I'm not gonna let you go
I'm not gonna let you slip away
You don't have to be afraid"
Mercy said, "No, sin will never take control"
Life and death stood face to face
Darkness tried to steal my heart away
Thank You, Jesus, mercy said, "No"
And now when Heaven looks at me
It's through the blood of Jesus
Reminding me of one day long ago long ago
Mercy said, "No, I'm not gonna let you go
I'm not gonna let you slip away
You don't have to be afraid"
Mercy said, "No, sin will never take control"
Life and death stood face to face
Darkness tried to steal my heart away
Thank You, Jesus, mercy said, "No"
Oh, mercy mercy said, "No"
When I felt the Savior leading
I was drawn to what I could not understand
And for the cause of Christ
I have spent my days believing
That what He'd have me be, is who I am
As I've come to see the weaker side of me
I realize His grace is what I'll need
When sin demanded justice for my soul
Mercy said, "No, I'm not gonna let you go
I'm not gonna let you slip away
You don't have to be afraid"
Mercy said, "No, sin will never take control"
Life and death stood face to face
Darkness tried to steal my heart away
Thank You, Jesus, mercy said, "No" ah, yeah
For God so loved the world
That He sent His Son to save us
From the cross He built a
Bridge to set us free
Oh, but deep within our hearts
There is still a war that rages
And makes a sacrifice so hard to see
As midnight fell upon the crucifixion day
The light of hope seemed oh so far away
As evil tried to stop redemption's flow
Mercy said, "No, I'm not gonna let you go
I'm not gonna let you slip away
You don't have to be afraid"
Mercy said, "No, sin will never take control"
Life and death stood face to face
Darkness tried to steal my heart away
Thank You, Jesus, mercy said, "No"
And now when Heaven looks at me
It's through the blood of Jesus
Reminding me of one day long ago long ago
Mercy said, "No, I'm not gonna let you go
I'm not gonna let you slip away
You don't have to be afraid"
Mercy said, "No, sin will never take control"
Life and death stood face to face
Darkness tried to steal my heart away
Thank You, Jesus, mercy said, "No"
Oh, mercy mercy said, "No"
