Mercy Refused
by Alvin Slaughter

Album: Yes!


Justice demanded satisfaction
The law had been broken again and again
Judgment required immediate action
Death wanted payment for sin

Mercy refused and love took my place
There on the cross
Where justice met grace
Mercy refused to let me die
Jesus the lamb was crucified
Though rightfully, death wanted me
Mercy refused

Christ has become my righteousness
The Lord is my peace
He's my freedom from sin
Now I am clothed in his holiness
To a new life, I entered in

There on the cross where
As high as the heavens are over the earth
So great is his love for us
As far as the east is from the west
That's how far he's removed
Our transgressions from us

And, Mercy refused and love took my place
There on the cross
Where justice met grace
Mercy refused
said Alvin you won't die
For Jesus the lamb was crucified

Though rightfully, death wanted me
Mercy refused
Though rightfully, death wanted me

He could have called 10,000 Angels
Jesus took my place! Oh yes He did
Mercy Refused
