Mercy Tree

On a hill called Calvary Stands an endless mercy tree Every broken, weary soul Find your rest and be made whole Stripes of blood that stain its frame Shed to wash away our shame From the scars, pure love released Salvation by the mercy tree In the spot between two thieves Hung the blameless prince of peace Beat and battered, scarred and scorned Sacred head pierced by our thorns "It is finished," was his cry The perfect lamb was crucified His sacrifice, our victory Our savior chose the mercy tree Hope went dark that violent day The whole earth quaked at love's display Three days silent in the ground This body born for heavens crown On that bright and glorious day When heaven opened up the grave He's alive and risen indeed Oh, praise him for the mercy tree Death has died, love has won Hallelujah, Hallelujah Jesus Christ has overcome He has risen from the dead One day soon, we'll see his face And every tear he'll wipe away No more pain, no sufferin' Oh, praise him for the mercy tree Death has died, love has won Hallelujah, Hallelujah Jesus Christ has overcome He has risen from the dead Death has died, love has won Hallelujah, Hallelujah Jesus Christ has overcome He has risen from the dead He has risen from the dead He has risen from the dead
