[Verse 1] I came in torn With mud on my hands A pocket full of shame And a heart that would not stand I hid in the dark Where the shame feels safe But You found me there And You knew my name [Pre-Chorus] When I could not rise You reached for me When I was all cracked up You still could see [Chorus] Saved by mercy Saved by mercy You took my broken And held me steady Saved by mercy Saved by mercy I was falling apart Now I am breathing [Verse 2] There were nights I fought My own shadowed mind Counting every loss Like it was mine But You stayed close At the edge of my fear One touch from Heaven And the storm grew clear [Pre-Chorus] When I could not rise You reached for me When I was all cracked up You still could see [Chorus] Saved by mercy Saved by mercy You took my broken And held me steady Saved by mercy Saved by mercy I was falling apart Now I am breathing [Bridge] I was a ruin You made a home I was a river Running alone Now I lift my hands And I let it show Every scar I carry Is a place You glow [Chorus] Saved by mercy Saved by mercy You took my broken And held me steady Saved by mercy Saved by mercy I was falling apart Now I am breathing Saved by mercy Saved by mercy You wrote new hope In all my hurting
