My heart burns inside my chest
at the sound of your voice, at the sight of your face.
What insanity and grace
lets fallen lips even whisper your Name?
Resurrected One,
burning glory form the grave
You outlast the sun
and all the earth as it decays.
I will gaze in Mercy's eyes
where Love's embrace takes hold of me
Drowning in Compassion's sight,
immersed in grace, overwhelming.
(Overwhelm my eyes)
My soul hangs on every word
spoken aloud from blood-stained ground.
Traded torture for your crown
and all my shame came bowing down.
Undefeated One,
all creation breathes your Name
Lifting up the sun
with songs of never-ending praise
I will gaze in Mercy's eyes
where Love's embrace takes hold of me
Drowning in Compassion's sight,
immersed in grace, overwhelming.
'Cause this is where my burdens lie,
my debt is paid,
guilt for glory!
Perfect in my Savior's eyes,
I've found my place
in Mercy's story!
(I've found my place in you, LORD,
In your grace, in your love for me, Oh God!)
And I will gaze in Mercy's eyes
where Love's embrace takes hold of me
Drowning in compassion's sight,
immersed in grace, overwhelming.
'Cause this is where my burdens lie,
my debt is paid,
guilt for glory!
Perfect in my Savior's eyes,
I've found my place
in Mercy's story!
(I've found my place in you, Lord,
I've found my place in your love and your mercy, Jesus.)
Oh where could I hide
from your love, Jesus? from your love
Oh where could I run?
Where could I run from your love, God,
from your love for me?
Oh I am loved by You, yes I am loved by you
(repeated)
