Mercy and Grace (feat. Timothy Brindle)

1 (Shai Linne)
 I gotta say this, God is gracious
 That's not just a doctrine statement, but my heartfelt proclamation
 Of a God who saves men without obligation
 From sin's domination and the bonds of Satan
 Nobody sins in moderation
 That's obvious from our evil thoughts to our conversation
 We were dead, we needed more than an operation
 We had to be brought out the grave and made alive, awakened
 It's quite amazing how in salvation
 Each person of the Trinity contributes like a compilation
 The Father elected me, Jesus bled for me
 And regeneration is the Holy Spirit's confirmation
 So we repent of our abominations
 Consecration to the God who's exalted above the constellations
 The observation of the congregation is
 God is gracious with a lot of patience, so we gotta praise Him!
 We'll forever praise His mercy and grace
 Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace
 His mercy and grace
 And Christ took the curse in our place
 Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace
 We'll forever praise His mercy and grace
 Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace
 His mercy and grace
 And Christ took the curse in our place
 Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace
 2 (Shai Linne)
 When I speak of God's mercy, I'm speaking of His tendency
 To tenderly express empathy towards His enemies
 Whether it be mentally or outright obscenity
 We effectively deserve hell for our enmity
 Adam left a legacy of sin, since we share in his pedigree
 We therefore share in his destiny
 If God didn't intervene, we'd all perish eventually
 In His great mercy, He gave us the remedy
 Christ lived sinlessly, then He paid the penalty
 His assassination was public like John Kennedy
 Rose on the third day, exalted to the heavenlies
 Repent and see your sins will be deleted from His memory
 Gain a new identity, eternal serenity
 Now it's clear we should "volunteer" like Tennessee
 To spread His fame endlessly, the message is essentially
 A merciful God sent His Son to set sinners free!
 We'll forever praise His mercy and grace
 Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace
 His mercy and grace
 And Christ took the curse in our place
 Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace
 We'll forever praise His mercy and grace
 Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace
 His mercy and grace
 And Christ took the curse in our place
 Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace
 3 (Timothy Brindle)
 In mercy, Christ saw our wretched condition
 But instead of giving us death for our sinning
 In grace, His blood paid the debt that's infinite
 Now resurrected with Christ and blessed because we're in Him
 Mercy: Christ turned the Father's anger
 Grace: Christ earned us all His favor
 And since Christ kept the precepts of the law
 Because of His perfection, we're accepted by God!
 Real righteousness He gladly gives us
 The Father happily lavishes this
 Instead of filthy rags, our Dad's forgiveness
 The ultimate story of rags to riches!
 His grace displayed in saving the worst men
 Behold, God's riches of grace are a Person (Jesus)
 Christ, the fountain abounding in His grace
 Over my foul sin and mountains of mistakes
 In pleasure He's immeasurably gracious
 Now we're seated with Jesus in the heavenly places
 Plus His Spirit's the strength that will change Tim
 He daily gives the grace of sanctification
 Forever we'll praise the I Am
 Who gave us grace in the Lamb before the ages began
 So Shai, with that, resume the Because of the cross, all His attributes are for us!
 We'll forever praise His mercy and grace
 Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace
 His mercy and grace
 And Christ took the curse in our place
 Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace
 We'll forever praise His mercy and grace
 Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace
 His mercy and grace
 And Christ took the curse in our place
 Praise the Lord for His mercy and grace
 Shai: Yo Tim, that was a bangin' verse, b
 Tim: Nah, remember, I'm a sinner saved by mercy
 Shai: What's mercy?
 Tim: It's not getting what we deserve
 Because Christ already suffered the judgment and curse
 But Shai, yo, you blazed it ace!
 Shai: Praise God, I'm just a sinner saved by grace
 Tim: Well, define grace
 Shai: Our redemption price immense
 Both: Grace stands for God's Riches At Christ's Expense!
