Tender Mercy

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 Tender Mercy
