A poor man on the corner I could give to You by buying him lunch But I rarely think about it 'Cause I got a little but it's not that much And I pray Lord won't You help me Give me a little bit more for myself And You say Child won't you let me Take all that you got and give you a little real wealth And I don't know what You want, what You see in my life And I don't know what You mean, how You could be glorified I'm not too sure about this idea of sacrifice What You mean by mercy, mercy in me Your mercy in me A young girl in an old house Three kids and another on the way She's in desperate need of some new clothes But I keep my old ones and tell her I'll pray for her
But Your heart breaks for those kids And that child of a mom who's one of Your own When a few gifts and a little time Is another crown I could lay at the feet of Your throne And I don't know what You want, what You see in my life And I don't know what You mean, how You could be glorified I'm not too sure about this idea of sacrifice What You mean by mercy, mercy in me Your mercy in me And I don't know what You want, what You see in my life And I don't know what You mean, how You could be glorified And I'm not too sure about this idea of sacrifice What You mean by mercy, mercy, mercy in me Your mercy in me
