Couplet 1

I'm no stranger to sin
And I've hurt You so
I don't do what I ought
I don't live what I know

Couplet 2

But I fall in Your arms
Cry Father I've lost
The battle was long
The lines were all crossed

Refrain

But oh the mercy of Jesus
It covers us worst ones it covers me

Refrain

And Your blood the greatest of fountains
Oh mighty ocean please cover me

Couplet 3

I've squandered my love
I've spent all my life
I find myself lost 'cause I chose to hide

Couplet 4

Oh Savior come save
I'm sick and in need
Oh will You come heal
What I've done to me

Refrain

And oh the mercy of Jesus
It covers us worst ones it covers me

Refrain

Your blood the greatest of fountains
Oh mighty ocean please cover me

Pont

All the sins of the world
Were washed by Your blood
When You spilled out Your love
Does Your heart still pour out
Forgive all my sin oh dear mercy I run

Refrain

And oh the mercy of Jesus
It covers us worst ones it covers me

Refrain

It's Your blood the greatest of fountains
Oh mighty ocean please cover me
