Mercy Ran by Evergreen Worship Lyrics
VERSE 1
Once an orphan of the shadow, Now a child of the King
I was bound by sin and darkness, Grace amazing set me free
Now I know this life is not my own, I was bought by blood Divine
Now my life song is to Christ alone, He who’s death has brought me life
VERSE 2 Trading Heaven for my wreckage, You have prized my heart to save
Who am I to be Your treasure; That You would lavish me with grace?
Love has made its quest my heart to seek, Ageless grace has called my name
Now my life song is to Christ alone To the glory of His grace
CHORUS Oh, that You would make my crimes Your own, Suffering violence for my shame Scarlet sins eclipsed by Love Divine, Hallelujah! Jesus saves!
VERSE 3 There is now no condemnation, For I am His and He is mine
Oh, the love that paid my ransom, Calls me blameless in His sight
For the wrath of God was satisfied, Death is swallowed in defeat
Now my life song is to Christ alone, For freedom Christ has set me free
BRIDGE For when justice called for payment, mercy ran to die for me!
Come and praise the name of Jesus, The Lamb for sinners slain!
VERSE 4 All you weak and heavy laden, Come to Him and find Your rest
He the theme of Heaven’s praises, Bends to call the sinner friend
Once an orphan of the shadow, Now a child of the King
I was bound by sin and darkness, Grace amazing set me free
Now I know this life is not my own, I was bought by blood Divine
Now my life song is to Christ alone, He who’s death has brought me life
VERSE 2 Trading Heaven for my wreckage, You have prized my heart to save
Who am I to be Your treasure; That You would lavish me with grace?
Love has made its quest my heart to seek, Ageless grace has called my name
Now my life song is to Christ alone To the glory of His grace
CHORUS Oh, that You would make my crimes Your own, Suffering violence for my shame Scarlet sins eclipsed by Love Divine, Hallelujah! Jesus saves!
VERSE 3 There is now no condemnation, For I am His and He is mine
Oh, the love that paid my ransom, Calls me blameless in His sight
For the wrath of God was satisfied, Death is swallowed in defeat
Now my life song is to Christ alone, For freedom Christ has set me free
BRIDGE For when justice called for payment, mercy ran to die for me!
Come and praise the name of Jesus, The Lamb for sinners slain!
VERSE 4 All you weak and heavy laden, Come to Him and find Your rest
He the theme of Heaven’s praises, Bends to call the sinner friend
