I was poor I was weak

I was the definition of the spiritually

Bankrupt condition

So in need of help

I was unsatisfied

Hungry and thirsty

When you rushed to my side

So unworthy

Still you gave yourself away...

[Chorus]

That's the motion of mercy

Changing the way and the why we are

That's the motion of mercy

Moving my heart

Now I'm filled by a love

That calls me to action

I was empty before now I'm drawn to compassion

And to give myself away

[Chorus]

That's the motion of mercy

Changing the way and the why we are

That's the motion of mercy

Moving my heart

Living for the lost

Loving 'til it hurts

No matter what the cost

Like you loved me first

That's the motion of mercy

God give me strength to give something for nothing

I wanna be a glimpse of the kingdom that's coming soon

[Chorus]

That's the motion of mercy

Changing the way and the why we are

That's the motion of mercy

Moving my heart
