Lord Have Mercy
Steve Merkel
Key: G

Verse 1:
Em               C
 Jesus I've forgotten
    G                   D/F#
The words that You have spoken
Em                C
 Promises that burned within
      G                 D/F#
my heart Have now grown dim
       Em                 C
With a doubting heart I follow
    G                D/F#
the paths of earthly wisdom
Em                   C
 Forgive me for my unbelief
  G                Dsus  D
Renew the fire again

Verse 2:
I have built an alter
where I worship things of man
I have taken journeys
that have drawn me far from You
But now I am returning
to Your mercies ever flowing
Pardon my transgressions
help me love You again

Verse 3:
I have longed to know You
and all Your tender mercies
Like a river of forgiveness
ever flowing without end
I bow my heart before You
in the goodness of Your presence
Your grace forever shining
like a beacon in the night
