Rich In Mercy

Verse 1
Lord we were walking
Held captive by our sin
And the passions of this world
We lived by our desire
Stuck in the mire
Like the rest of all mankind

Pre-Chorus
In ways of the world
Dead in our sin
Poor and broken

Chorus
But God, being rich in mercy
The greatest love of all
But God, made us alive
By His grace he’s saved us all

Verse 2
Lord we were boasting
In the works done in our strength
Living to earn our way to life
Straining and sinking
Cut off and cast out
We were lost and without hope

Chorus
But God, being rich in mercy
The greatest love of all
But God, made us alive
By His grace he’s saved us all

Bridge
By the riches of his kindness
There is true life for all
Redeemed and forgiven
New life is ours

By the riches of his kindness
There is true life for all
Redeemed and forgiven
New life is ours

Chorus
But God, being rich in mercy
The greatest love of all
But God, made us alive
By His grace he’s saved us all

Verse 3 (Tag)
By the blood of the Son
We who were far off
In Him we’ve been brought near
In Him we’ve been brought near
