[Verse 1] I came in tired Dust on my shoes Carrying stones I could not lose I heard a song Under my skin Soft as rain Calling me in [Pre-Chorus] And when my hands Could not hold on You met me there And pulled me strong [Chorus] River of mercy Carry me home River of mercy I am not alone River of mercy Wash me clean River of mercy Make me new in me [Verse 2] I lost my way At the field gate Chased by the weight Of all my shame But You lit the path With a steady light One small step Back into life [Pre-Chorus] And when my voice Broke in two You sang it back Like You always do [Chorus] River of mercy Carry me home River of mercy I am not alone River of mercy Wash me clean River of mercy Make me new in me [Bridge] I was the bent reed Still standing there I was the cracked cup Held in Your care Now I rise up With open hands Not by my name But by Your grace [Chorus] River of mercy Carry me home River of mercy I am not alone River of mercy Wash me clean River of mercy Make me new in me River of mercy Still calling me River of mercy Set my heart free ···©️ 2026 Swami Records ··· Lyrics/Syles by Swami Dave
