Confession is good for the soul they say Well now it's my turn I'm willing to share all I've learned someday But some days not willing to learn
I don't always like to be told What's right from wrong I'm selfish sometimes when I don't want to be How can you stand me? Oh Lord, why do you hold on?
Chorus: I'm always talking about the way you blessed me, oh yeah I'm always singing about how good you are But I don't always tell That it's despite of myself You know I haven't been good Some days I don't do what I should Yet your mercy somehow endures.
There's no other love that compares to yours It's hard to understand. How you never repay me what I deserve I think you that you're not like man (Not like man) See sometimes I desire to give hurt for hurt Yet I know that's not like you Yet this old flesh of mine tries to win every time I'm grateful your word is true You faithfully see me through
Chorus
Your mercy (Is good and it's kind) Your mercy (Is brand new everyday) Your mercy (Is ever lasting)
