Nichole Nordeman — Mercies New lyrics

Lyrics

Is it fair to say, ‽I was lured away?â€
By endless distractions and lovelier attractions then
Or fairer still, my own free will
Is the better one to blame for this familiar mess I’ve made again
So I would understand
You were out of patience
And I would understand
I was out of chances
Your mercies are new every morning
So let me wake with the dawn
When the music is through or so it seems to be Then let me sing a new song, old things gone
Every day it’s true, You make all Your mercies new
The distance left between East and West
Is how far You would go to forget the debt I’d owe
And thrown into the sea, the wicked ways in me Will never have a chance to wash back on the sand
So I would understand
If You would make me pay
I would understand
Lying in the bed I made again
Your mercies are new every morning
So let me wake with the dawn
When the music is through or so it seems to be Let me sing a new song, old things gone
Every day it’s true, You make all Your mercies new
Up comes the sun
On every one of us Gone, gone, gone the
Guilt and shame that knew Your name
Your mercies are new every morning
So let me wake with the dawn yeah
When the music is through or so it seems to be Let me sing a new song, old things gone
Every day it’s true, You make all Your mercies new
Every day it’s true, You make all Your mercies new
