Lyrics:
Be merciful O Lord, let your love shine 
Sound your sweet chord, through my offenses draw a line 
Erase the chalkboard, the errors are all mine 
In denying them I’m bored and they stand out like a sign 
Against you did I discord, your sight I couldn’t blind 
The truth is in your word and your judgement Lord is fine 
 
I was sinful at birth, at the moment of conception 
But you forgave me first, baptized by affection 
When your blood hit the earth, you willed our redemption 
I admit I’m unworthy, I hear your voice in confession 
Cast my sins beyond the surf, destroy all connection 
Create O virgin birth, pure heart reunion 
 
Don’t cast me out of your view, don’t take your Holy Spirit from me 
The joy of your salvation renew a willing spirit to sustain me 
I’ll teach sinners your statutes, and they’ll return to thee 
O Lord I trust in you, only you can save me 
Then I will sing and shout, about your power to free 
And I will praise you out loud, Lord just help me to speak 
 
Offerings and sacrifices, are not what you please 
Feeling sorrow in our hearts, puts the situation at ease 
This is what you desire, what you won’t refuse 
Please be willing Lord aspire, help rebuild our cities 
With sorrow in our hearts, please Lord be appeased 
Then in your presence at your altar, again we’ll bring offerings 
To the king of all kings, Jesus the king
