Elevation Worship collaborated with Maverick City and released a single, with the live performance music video of the song titled “Mercy.”
The song is emphatically about the mercy of God, which surpasses our abilities and deeds. Of a truth, we can undoubtedly say that the mercy of God is what has kept us alive and going thus far. Sometimes, the decisions we make and take should have cost our existence, or perhaps, put us in a condition that is irrecoverable, but for God’s mercy, WE ARE NOT CONSUMED!. Hallelujah!
A section of the song says:
“I thought I deserved
Oh, to be six feet beneath the earth
For all the things I’ve done
The things I’ve said
The choices made that I regret
Oh, I would still be lost
Oh, but for the mercy of God….”
No matter where you are in life, be conscious of the fact that it is the mercy of God that has brought you thus far.
As you listen, may God’s mercy speak for you continually!

Lyrics:
I’m living proof
Of what the mercy of God can do
If you knew me then
You’d believe me now
He turned my whole life upside down
He took the old and He made it new
That’s just what the mercy of God can do
Now I’m alive to tell the story
How I’ve overcome
It’s His goodness and mercy
And the power of His blood
I’m so glad that my freedom
Wasn’t based on what I’ve done
But His goodness and mercy
And the power of the blood
Thought I deserved
To be six feet beneath the earth
For all the things I’ve done
The things I’ve said
The choices made that I regret
Oh I would still be lost
But for the mercy of God
Was the cross meant for me
That my Savior carried
Now I’ve been made free
By the mercy of God
Was the grave meant for me
Where my sin lay buried
Now I stand redeemed
By the mercy of God
