Intro: G

Verse 1:


C                  G         C            G            C
 Once there was a holy place. Evidence of God’s embrace.
                   G          C                       D C
I can almost see mercy’s face, pressed against the veil.
                    G           C               G      C
Looking down with longing eyes, mercy must have realized.
                   G          C                    D
Once His blood was sacrificed freedom would prevail.         
            C                       G
And as the sky grew dark, and the earth began to shake.
       Bm        Am    C       D
With justice no longer in the way!

Chorus:
             G                            D
Mercy Came a runnin' like a pris’ner set free.
              Em              C           D
Past all my failures, to the point of my need.
         C            G                      D
When the sin that I carried, was all I could see.
           C
And when I could not reach mercy,
Am           D          G  D
Mercy came a runnin’ to me.

C                 G            C              G             C
 Once there was a broken heart. Way to human from the start.
                      G          C                  D C
All the years left it torn apart, hopeless and afraid.
              G             C                   G           C
Walls I never meant to build, left this pris’ner unfulfilled
                   G             C                 D
Freedom called but even still, it seemed so far away.
      C                          G
I was bound by the chains, from the wages of my sin!
Bm          Am            C    D
Just when I felt like givin’ in!

Chorus:

             G                            D
Mercy Came a runnin' like a pris’ner set free.
              Em              C           D
Past all my failures, to the point of my need.
         C            G                      D
When the sin that I carried, was all I could see.
           C
And when I could not reach mercy,
Am           D          G  
Mercy came a runnin’ to me.


Bridge:

Bb                          G
  Sometimes I still feel so far!    
                                  Bb
So far from where I really should be.
                       D
He gently calls to my heart! Just to remind me!
