Have Mercy On Me Now
Words and Music by Chris Davenport & Joel Houston
© 2022 Hillsong MP Songs & Hillsong Music Publishing Australia
CCLI: 7194087

VERSE 1:
My heart was heavy with desperation 
Just too ashamed to lift my head
Till all my chains were finally broken 
As I prayed this sinner’s prayer

CHORUS 1:
God have mercy on me
God have mercy on me right now
‘Cause I just need a place 
To lay my weary head
So God have mercy on me 
Have mercy on me now
Have mercy on me now

VERSE 2:
You weren’t looking for a holy roller
With a point of pride to prove
But oh how irresistible to grace is failure
To hear a sinner singing God I need You

CHORUS 2:
God have mercy on me 
God have mercy on me right now
‘Cause I just need a place 
To lay my weary head
And I just need a place 
To raise my empty hands
So have mercy on me now 

BRIDGE:
When I was desperate for redemption 
A drowning man all out of breath 
You threw me more than just a lifeline
You took the wind right out of death 
Like a dead man resurrected
Your Spirit burning in my bones
Until I breathe the air of heaven 
There’s a song I won’t let go 

CHORUS 3:
God have mercy on me 
God have mercy on me right now
‘Cause I just need a place 
To lay my weary head
So God have mercy on me 
Have mercy on me now
