Mercy Said No!

I thought I'd share the lyrics to a song I heard
just last night that absolutely blew me away... just like the squall
that hit us only a couple hours before. The original lyrics are by Cece
Winans, but it was sung that night by the Ball Brothers... GREAT
vocalists all...

It should be the first song listed on the website here, but I'll include the lyrics too.

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, 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 going to let you go
I'm not going to 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

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 going to let you go
I'm not going to 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

(Bridge)

And now when heaven looks at me
It's through the blood of Jesus
Reminding me of one day long ago

I'm not going to let you go
I'm not going to 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

Awesome lyrics..

Aye. This goes right in my favorites list, along with "In Chrsit Alone," and "Under the Sun"
