Living In the Arms of Mercy
by Mercy's Mark Quartet

Album: Something's Happening

I admit I walked too closely
To the edge of compromise
I've even crossed the line a time or two
And I understand how Paul could say
"Oh, God, why do I do the things
That I don't want to do?"
But I'm still very much a man
After Your own heart
And You alone can win this war
Between light and dark

So, I'm living in the arms of mercy
Totally dependent
On the grace I don't deserve
Living in the arms of mercy
Lord, I'm down to next to nothing
But I'm dying to be worth
Your forgiveness
So, I'm living in the arms of mercy

Someday I will rise above
And I will soar on wings of faith
Fly to where my spirit wants to go
Although it seems so far away
From where I am, from day to day
Your peace is in my soul
For now, I'm still a traveler
On this journey to Your will
So, let me take my refuge here
Where hope is sacred still

Living in the arms of mercy
Totally dependent
On the grace I don't deserve
Living in the arms of mercy
Lord, I'm down to next to nothing
But I'm dying to be worth
Your forgiveness
So, I'm living in the arms of mercy

I can't imagine me without
The peace and love You give
And I don't want toleave the place
Where I can freely live

Now I'm living in the arms of mercy
Totally dependent
On the grace I don't deserve
Living in the arms of mercy
Lord, I'm down to next to nothing
But I'm living in the arms of mercy
Lord, I'm down to next to nothing
But I'm dying to be worth
Your forgiveness
So, I'm living in the arms of mercy, mercy
