Mercy at Your Feet

When I’m bound 

With no release 

I find mercy at your feet 

When the walls 

Of this mortal room are closing in

Your grace covers all my sin 

It’s a tiny cell and my sins bounce back to me 

There isn’t a corner that you don’t swept clean 

Rushing waters, roaring fires, collide and dissipate in the light of your amazing grace 

It’d be game over but you say “I’m not done”

It’d be curtain call but you say “you’re called”

Heart iced over, thawed, and overflowing again

There isn’t a piece left that you won’t take for your own end

I try to understand and you say don’t 

Just be here for this proud God moment 

The moment I use to make all things new 

Including the life energy infusing you 

I don’t need to understand to trust you 

I’m in awe of the workings of your hand

It’s beyond my capacity to comprehend 

I give you my struggle 

I surrender my plea 

I find mercy at your feet
