Lord have Mercy

I seen him in the night roar cross the sky
I thought I'd stop to ask him why
My life is hell, it burns my mind
I'm a awful sight all broke and blind

Refrain:

I seen him in the night burn up the sky
I thought I'd pray for the strength to fly
It can't be right, my noose is tied
I'm standing on the door to my demise

Refrain:

I heard him in the night sing out my name
I thought I'd wipe away this shame
It can't be right to lose it all
Dreaming of the light before the fall

Refrain:
I tore my heart to cry his name
Hoped to still escape the flame
It can't be right to lose the love
The sweet delight of the Lord above

Refrain:
They dropped the door beneath my feet
The rope was vain and the devil cheat
It won't be long till this broken man
Is cradled in the bosom of the promised land

Refrain=>

Lord have mercy on this broken man
Lord have mercy do'n all I can
I been to the mountain, swum to the deep
Pray to the Lord my soul to keep
Lord have Mercy

I seen him in the night roar cross the sky
I thought I'd stop to ask him why
My life is hell, it burns my mind
I'm a awful sight all broke and blind

Refrain:

I seen him in the night burn up the sky
I thought I'd pray for the strength to fly
It can't be right, my noose is tied
I'm standing on the door to my demise

Refrain:

I heard him in the night sing out my name
I thought I'd wipe away this shame
It can't be right to lose it all
Dreaming of the light before the fall

Refrain:
I tore my heart to cry his name
Hoped to still escape the flame
It can't be right to lose the love
The sweet delight of the Lord above

Refrain:
They dropped the door beneath my feet
The rope was vain and the devil cheat
It won't be long till this broken man
Is cradled in the bosom of the promised land

Refrain=>

Lord have mercy on this broken man
Lord have mercy do'n all I can
I been to the mountain, swum to the deep
Pray to the Lord my soul to keep
