[Verse 1]
You know what I need when my heart bleeds
I suffer from greed, a longing to feed
On the mercy in you
[Verse 2]
I can't conceal the way I'm healed
The pleasure I feel when I have to deal
With the mercy in you
[Chorus]
I would do it all again
Lose my way and fall again
Just so I could call again
On the mercy in you‚ on the mercy in you
[Verse 3]
When here in my mind I feel inclined
To wrongly treat you unkind‚ I have faith I will find ("Oh yeah!")
The mercy in you
[Chorus]
I would lose my way again
Be led hopelessly astray again
Just so I could pray again
For the mercy in you
[Interlude]
"Oh yeah!"
[Verse 4]
When here in my mind I have been blind
Emotionally behind‚ I'll have faith I will find ("Yeah!")
The mercy in you, the mercy in you
The mercy in you, the mercy in you ("Oh yeah! Oh!")
[Outro]
"Thank you."
