The Mercy Seat
Words and Music/Steve Richardson,Mark Carouthers,Jeff Harpole copyright 1993

Verse 1
In the darkness where everything is unknown
I face the power of sin on my own
I did not know of a place I could go
Where I could find a way to heal my wounded soul
He said that I could come into His presence without fear
Into the holy place where His mercy hovers near

Chorus 1
I'm runnin' I'm runnin' I'm runnin' to the mercy seat
Where Jesus is callin' He said His grace would cover me
His blood will flow freely It will provide the healin'
I'm runnin' to the mercy seat

Verse 2
Are you livin' where hope has not been
Lost in the curse of a lifetime of sin
Lovely illusions they never come true
I know where there's a place of mercy for you
He said that you could come into His presence without fear
Into the holy place where His mercy hovers near

Chorus 2
Come runnin' come runnin' come runnin' to the mercy seat
Where Jesus is callin' His grace will be a covering
His blood will flow freely It will provide the healin'
Come runnin' to the mercy seat

He said that I could come into His presence without fear
Into the holy place where His mercy hovers near

(Repeat Chorus 1 twice)
