Verse 1

I’m living proof
Of what the mercy of God cando
If You knew me then
You’d believe me now
He turned my whole life upside down
He took the old and
He made it new
That’s just what the mercy
Of God can do

Chorus 1

Now I’m alive to tell the story
How I’ve overcome
It’s His goodness and mercy
And the power of His blood
I’m so glad that my freedom
Wasn’t based on what I’ve done
But His goodness and mercy
And the power of the blood

Verse 2

Thought I deserved
To be six feet beneath the Earth
For all the things I’ve done
All the things I’ve said
The choices made that I regret
I would still be lost
But for the mercy of God

Chorus 1

Now I’m alive to tell the story
How I’ve overcome
It’s His goodness and mercy
And the power of His blood
I’m so glad that my freedom
Wasn’t based on what I’ve done
But His goodness and mercy
And the power of the blood

Bridge 1

Was the cross meant for me
That my Savior carried
Now I’ve been made free
By the mercy of God
Was the grave meant for me
Where my sin lay buried
Now I stand redeemed
By the mercy of God

Chorus 1

Now I’m alive to tell the story

Wasn’t based on what I’ve done
But His goodness and mercy
And the power of the blood
