Your mercy, is why I didn't perished long ago.
I was a sinner, but that You know.
But You came and died for man, Why, I'm just not sure I understand.
Because of Your mercy I am still here to praise Thee, And perhaps the rapture I also will see.
You came to give life to man, Why, I'm just not sure I understand.
Man has rejected, rebelled; yet mercy You still show.
From Heaven to the cross You did go.
From the beginning mercy You have shown to man.
Why, I'm just not sure I understand.
Your mercy You show to all generations, Because You love the people of all nations.
From the beginning You never gave up on man.
Why, I'm just not sure I understand.
Man has done everything contrary to Your will, Yet You love him, You love him still.
All the hate he has toward You, You still love man, Why, I'm just not sure I understand.
All that will; You are waiting for them to come, You want everyone to have life, everyone!
You did everything needed to save man, Why, I'm just not sure I understand.
Satan was given dominion over the earth, Man was in sin and needed a new birth.
So You came and gave Your life for man, You made such a change in me, now I understand.
