Album: Something to Shout About
A baby's cry in Bethlehem broke through one silent night
When Heaven's child from up above came down to bring us life
New mercies were now dawning for this birth was in God's plan
Christ came to show the Father's love and save the souls of man
The loving God, Jehovah, gave His only son to die
A sinless lamb on Calvary laid His life on the line
Three rusty nails went through His flesh and deep into the wood
Those nails couldn't keep in on the cross, but His love for sinners could
Mercy river started flowing from the Saviors' wounded side
So by grace through faith those sinners could be saved
Mercy river has flowed over me from banks so deep and wide
It's crimson waters washed my sins away
Mercy river is still changing lives today
2,000 years have come and gone since those timbers decayed
But the baby born in Bethlehem left behind an empty grave
Mercy river's mighty current is still making sinners clean
There's power in that precious flow and healing in it's stream
Mercy river started flowing from the Saviors' wounded side
So by grace through faith those sinners could be saved
Mercy river has flowed over me from banks so deep and wide
It's crimson waters washed my sins away
Mercy river is still changing lives today
Mercy river started flowing from the Saviors' wounded side
So by grace through faith those sinners could be saved
Mercy river has flowed over me from banks so deep and wide
It's crimson waters washed my sins away
Mercy river is still changing lives today
