Tender Mercy Lyrics

The hardest years of my life

Have been the last two

At times I cried out with all my heart

Oh Lord, what can I do

When everything got desperate

And I felt I couldn't go another step

His hand reached out for me

And my heart wept, because

I could see, He was, always there

He had carried me

When it was too much for me to bear

His hand was in it all

There was no way for me to fall

I feel safe through the Lord's

Tender Mercy

When I look back, now I can see

Wisdom and just why it had to be

When I thought things wouldn't work out

When I thought he didn't care

I shouldn't have doubted 'cause

He was always there

I can see, He was, always there

He has carried me

When it was too much for me to bear

His hand was in it all

There's no way for me to fall

I feel safe through the Lord's

Tender Mercy

Lord, I will follow you

As you've never led me astray

I'll hold fast to your word each and every day

Lord, I don't know what lies ahead

But I trust in you

I'll give you my heart

I know you'll see me through

With you I can do anything

And be who you need me to be

Lord, give me the strength

As I seek you diligently

I could see, You were, always there

You have carried me

When it was too much for me to bear

Your hand was in it all

There's no way for me to fall

I feel safe through the Lord's

Tender Mercy
