"Grace And Mercy"
(Derwin Jackson / Dottie Peoples)

You didn't have to do what you did this morning
When you woke me up right on time
You didn't have to do it, but you did, open these old eyes of mine
I thank you for sparing me one more day
Through all of your many blessing all I could say;
If it wasn't for your mercy and your grace I would fail

Tell me can you, can you remember
How many times you've been on your sick bed
The doctor said nothing else we can do turned away and shook his head,
But oh grace and mercy stepped in right on time
Commanded death to take his hands off this child of mine
If it wasn't for your mercy and your grace I would fail

For your mercy and your grace
For your mercy and grace forever faithful from day to day
For your mercy, for your mercy and your grace
I don't know about you but I could not run this race
But I'm so glad you love me, and you care you promise you'd be there
For your mercy and your grace
For your mercy and your grace

I don't about you but I couldn't got up this morning
If it wasn't for your mercy and your grace
For your mercy and your grace
For your mercy I got a mind to think right now, the activity of my name
It was all because your mercy and your grace
And I want to thank you right now for your mercy and your grace
Oh Lord your mercy and your grace
I thank you for your mercy and your grace
I just want to say thank you for the many blessing you bestowed upon me right now
Thank you for your mercy and your grace
I couldn't, I couldn't, have made it without your mercy and your grace
