lyrics

Have mercy on me, for life gets the better of me sometimes.
I should have known better, since history doesn’t repeat, but rhymes.
It’s easier said than done to turn away,
But I know Your joy will be mine some day.

It’s hard, but we’re no longer innocent children
We fear justice, since we just want to be forgiven.
So in vain, we will try, and will try again.
We tend to forget, in the end, we’re just women and men.

So here I am, taking in everything You give that I don’t deserve.
And I know that You’re asking me to distribute, not to reserve,
A chance for the rest of the world to be free.
For these people are no less deserving than me.

I trust in You.
I trust in You.
I trust in You.
This trust is true.
