Mystery of Mercy

I am the woman at the well, I am the harlot I am the scattered seed that fell along the path I am the son who ran away I am the bitter son who stayed My God, my God Why hast thou accepted me You took my sin and wrapped me in Your robe and your ring My God, my God Why hast thou accepted me It's a mystery of mercy And the song I sing I am the angry men who came to stone the lover I am the woman there ashamed before the crowd I am the leper who gave thanks I am the nine who never came My God, my God Why hast thou accepted me You took my sin and wrapped me in Your robe and your ring My God, my God Why hast thou accepted me It's a mystery of mercy And the song I sing You are the bringer of the moon and all the seasons You are the singer of the tune that calls the stars My God, my God Why hast thou accepted me You took my sin and wrapped me in Your robe and your ring My God, my God Why hast thou accepted me When all my love was vinegar To a thirsty king My God, my God Why hast thou accepted me It's a mystery of mercy And the song I sing --- Mystery Of Mercy - Andrew Peterson
