George Beverly Shea - Mercy Lord

Tekst piosenki:

I’m going there (going there)
To heaven some day (going to heaven some day)
I’m going home (going home)
He’ll show me the way (showing me, showing the way)

In my heart sometimes I ponder
As down life’s road I wander
To a city over yonder
Where peace and love abide
Where my trials are gone forever
And the tears will find me never
You’ll see (you'll see) that there’ll be (there'll be) a place for me
And I’m going there some day (there some day)

I have started for a city (mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord)
That is free from shame and pity (mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord)
It’s a bright eternal city (mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord)
And I am traveling on my way (mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord)
Some day I’ll have to leave you (mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord)
Don’t you let my parting grieve you (mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord)
You’ll see (you'll see) that there’ll be (there'll be) a place for me
And I’m going there some day (there some day)

Dear Lord look down upon me (mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord)
And Lord (won't you) have mercy on me (mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord)
I am just a weary pilgrim (mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord)
Lord I am tired and (I am) so forlorn (mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord)
Lord I (I want to) thank you for your blessings (mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord)
And for all that I’m possessing (mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord, mercy Lord)
You’ll see (you'll see) that there’ll be (there'll be) a place for me
And I’m going there some day (there some day)

Mercy Lord
