Marda Todd - Mercy On Me lyrics

[Intro] Lord, have mercy on my soul For I have walked the sinful road That I'm down on my knees Lord, have mercy on me, please [Verse 1] Jesus, I must confess That in all my loneliness I've forsaken and I've sinned Leaving fragments of a man so broken I could tell you what I've done Or should I tell you where I went wrong? Well, the more that I start to play My deceitful, evil ways Keep on growing stronger by the day [Chorus] Oh, Lord have mercy on my soul For I have walked a sinful road So I'm gonna get down on my knees Beg forgiveness to help set me free Lord, have mercy on me, please [Verse 2] Mother Mary full of grace In my weakness, I've lost faith I've been careless, and I have been warned And the devil inside me is torn God bless the men that I have scorned [Chorus] Oh, Lord have mercy on my soul For I have walked a sinful road So I'm gonna get down on my knees Beg forgiveness to help set me free Lord, have mercy on me, please [Outro] So don't let me fool around no more Send your angels down to guide me through that door Well, I've gone and confessed my regrets And I pray I'm not held in contempt I'm so lost, and I need you to help me to repent Oh, Lord, have mercy on my soul Oh, I'm begging, I'm pleeding, I'm needing I want you to know So I'm down upon my knees Oh, Lord, I need forgiveness I need forgiveness from you
