lyrics

VERSE 1:
The goodness of the Lord is the kindess of the Lord
with ev’ry breath we take, the gift of life and grace.
The power of the Lord is the meekness of the Lord
who bore humanity with brave humility.

REFRAIN:
Let Your mercy flow through us, Your mercy, Your mercy. (2x)

VERSE 2:
The beauty of the Lord is the suff’ring of the Lord,
is Christ upon a tree, stripped of dignity.
The glory of the Lord is the mercy of the Lord,
gives life for us to see a new humanity:
Refrain

BRIDGE 1:
When they see us, may they see Your mercy, Your mercy.
When they know us, may they know Your mercy, Your mercy.

BRIDGE 2:
Bless the hands and feet of those who serve in need,
of the broken and ashamed
Bless the weary soul, the Lord will make us whole;
God, speak peace to those afraid!
May the words we speak build a bridge for peace—
Your lovingkindness shows the way!
Open up our doors, giving refuge for all the weary and afraid…
