Jesus, I've forgotten the words that You have spoken
Promises that burned within my heart have now grown dim
With a doubting heart I follow the paths of earthly wisdom
Forgive me for my unbielief
renew the fire again

Chorus (refrão)

Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me

Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me

female voice:
I have built an altar where I worship things of man
I have taken journeys that have draw me far from You
Now I am returning to Your mercies ever flowing
Pardon my transgressions
Help me love You again

Repeat Chorus:

Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me

Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me

Michael W. Smith

I have Longed to know You and Your tender mercies
Like a river of forgiveness ever flowing without end
I bow my heart before Your in the goodness of Your presence
Your grace forever shining
Like a beacon in the night

Repeat Chorus:

Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me

Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
