Amy Grant - How Mercy Looks From Here Lyrics
The water rose today,The river with the rainMemories and picture framesAre floating miles away.Through the wreckage and the mud,The ruins after the flood,She survived at 91, hmmSome would have given upDrowning in their tearsBut on her wrinkled faceA smile appeared.When you face your greatest fearLosing all that you hold nearOpen up your eyes my dear,Oh how mercy looks from here.The call I couldn't take,Unbearable mistakesA brilliant mind that fades awayA baby doll beside the graveWhen you face your greatest fearLosing all that you hold nearOpen up your eyes my dearOh how mercy looks from here.I would have given up, drowning in my tearsIf it wasn't for your voice all these yearsWhen you face your greatest fearLosing all that you hold nearOpen up your eyes my dearMy dearThat's when boundless grace appearsUnseen angels hover nearSaints are singing loud and clearOh how mercy looks from here.Oh how mercy looks from here.Oh how mercy looks from here.Oh how mercy looks from here
