Mercy Will Prevail lyrics

I wanna swear it's true but it's hard to defend it I know it comes from You and I don't comprehend it Love never fails Mercy will prevail I wanna swear it's true but it's hard to defend it In the chill of a cruel word In the nest of a wounded bird In the shadow of doubt In the smoke In the smoke of a torch blown out I wanna swear it's true but it's hard to believe it I know it comes from You so I want to receive it Divine love never fails Mercy will prevail I wanna swear it's true but it's hard to believe it In the thrust of a bayonet In the hour of deep regret In a world gone insane In the eye In the eye of a hurricane In the chill of a cruel word In the nest of a wounded bird In the shadow of doubt In the smoke In the smoke of a torch blown out In the flight of a sharp stone In the rubble where children moan In our own apathy In the blood In the river at Calvary
