Representative Text

1 Not for justice do I plead, for His mercy is my need,
And His mercy is as great as His grace;
From the day of wrath I’m free, for His mercy is for me;
And His mercy is as great as His grace.

Refrain:
Yes, His mercy is as great as His grace,
And I know when I shall see Him face to face,
That His smile will welcome me,
He who died to make me free;
And His mercy is as great as His grace.

2 Ye must all be born anew, then you’ll find this promise true,
That His mercy is as great as His grace;
From your sin you must be free, He alone can rescue thee;
And His mercy is as great as His grace. [Refrain]

3 “Whosoever,” is the call, tell it out to one and all,
That His mercy is as great as His grace;
Send the word to ev’ry land, till the nations understand
That His mercy is as great as His grace. [Refrain]
