Thy Mercy My God

Thy Mercy My God

Thy mercy, my God, is the theme of my song,
The joy of my heart. and the boast of my tongue;
Thy free grace alone, from the first to the last,
Hath won my affections, and bound my soul fast.

Without Thy sweet mercy I could not live here;
Sin would reduce me to utter despair;
But, through Thy free goodness, my spirits revive,
And He that first made me still keeps me alive.

Thy mercy is more than a match for my heart,
Which wonders to feel its own hardness depart;
Dissolved by Thy goodness, I fall to the ground,
And weep to the praise of the mercy I've found.

Great Father of mercies, Thy goodness I own,
And the covenant love of Thy crucified Son;
All praise to the Spirit, Whose whisper divine
Seals mercy, and pardon, and righteousness mine.

Great song, and great job playing it! I just wish you had the video zoomed a little farther out so we could see your left hand the whole time. :)

[CalebWishart]

Wow! Really good. The double time rhythm part is really nice.

Are you in standard tuning?

i listened to caedmon's call's version, and i think you did a better job. what chords did you use?

[childofpacific]

Dude, you did a really great job with this. You captured the original Sandra McCracken feel, which is a little more haunting than the way I've heard this song done lately.
