Pam Thum - Cry Mercy lyrics

I've never seen the sky so black As the day we crucified Him The dark clouds hung low Over the hill called Calvary Distracted from their scorn Oh, the crowd grew silent I heard Him cry "It's finished" When something broke in me They say the veil in the temple was torn But my eyes beheld Jesus Christ the Lord Now I'm falling on my knees And I cry mercy I'm needing Your forgiveness for my sin Now I'm falling on my knees And I cry mercy, mercy Wash me with Your blood and take me in Lord, have mercy Ooh, I cry mercy, oh... (Mercy) They broke into the chambers Of my shame and my confusion Angry men said for my sin I must die And shaking their fists in the name of religion I stood condemned until Jesus walked by Like a light that's cutting through the dark (Through the darkness) He broke the walls of judgment around my heart Now I'm falling on my knees And I cry mercy I'm needing Your forgiveness for my sin Now I'm falling on my knees And I cry mercy, mercy Wash me wait Your blood and take me in Lord, have mercy (oh-oh, have mercy) Cover me with Your mercy (Cover me with mercy) The gentle rain of Your mercy (With your mercy) Let it fall (Oh, let it fall) On the ground, all around, oh-oh... I'm falling on my knees And I cry mercy I'm needing Your forgiveness for my sin (Needing Your forgiveness) Oh, I'm falling on my knees And I cry mercy, mercy Wash me with Your blood and take me in Lord, have mercy (Lord, have mercy) Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, mercy
