I was poor, I was weak I was a definition of a spiritually Bankrupt condition so in need of help I was unsatisfied, hungry and thirsty When You rush to my side So unworthy still You gave Yourself away That's the motion of mercy Changing the way and the why we are That's the motion of mercy Moving my heart Now I'm filled by love that calls me to action I was empty before, now I'm drawn to compassion And to give myself away That's the motion of mercy Changing the way and the why we are That's the motion of mercy Moving my heart Living for the lost, living to be heard No matter what, they'll toss Like You love me first That's the motion of mercy, oh God, give me strength To give something for nothing I wanna be a glimpse of the Kingdom That's coming soon That's the motion of mercy Changing the way and the why we are That's the motion of mercy Moving my heart Living for the lost, living to be heard No matter what, they'll toss Like You love me first That's the motion of mercy Moving my heart Oh, to give Yourself away To give it all away That's the motion of mercy
