Matthew West - Moved By Mercy lyrics

She said I keep having the same dream Close my eyes and Im chasing a younger me Try to wrap my arms around her Shield her from the hell that found her But Im always just a little too late I see the tears falling down her face How come no one protected The little girl that the world rejected Oh, where do you go when you cant go back Cant save the past And she cries in the middle of the night Take me far away now From this broken place now Somewhere they cant hurt me I wanna be moved by mercy Jesus, I cant see You I just know I need You Help me start a new life Let my heart be moved by mercy I used to be a future burning bright Now Im just another sleepless night All the hurt that you hide behind that door Im not gonna let it hurt you anymore For so long I thought You abandoned me Now Im starting to see things differently Im the one who began a good work in you And Im the one who is gonna see it through Ill see you through For so long I felt so unworthy But in My arms all your shame is moved by mercy So here I stand, a child undeserving Take My hand and let your heart be moved by mercy
