Song - Lord Have Mercy
The painting that accompanies this song is called, “Through the Eyes of a Child".” The song called “Lord Have Mercy,” describes the yearning for a deeper relationship with God and with ourselves.
I walked in darkness
in the middle of day,
alone and fearful as I stumbled.
Eyes blinded by the lies of this world
Where hope within had crumbled
Lost and forlorn, I cried in pain,
and then He came
Lord have mercy on me,
I beg you to let me see
Please heal me Lord, set me free
He touched my eyes;
hope was renewed
Joy, chased away my sorrow
Then, sensing all my shadows inside
Doubts clouded my tomorrow
Lost and forlorn, I cried in pain,
again He came
Lord, have mercy on me,
I beg you to let me see
Please heal me Lord, set me free!
It isn’t my eyes where my problem lies
It’s so much deeper you see
My heart and my soul
have a need to be whole
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord have mercy on me,
I beg you to let me see
You’ve touched my soul, Now I’m free!
I see! I’m free
