VERSE 1:
If we say we have no sin
We are liars and the truth is not within
Even our righteousness is like a filthy rag
The truth is we ain’t got nothing to come with around and brag
If we haven’t been washed
By the blood from the cross
Then we’ll always be here
Living forever in fear
We have to come to the Lord
And say have mercy on us
We need you now
Oh Lord
CHORUS 1:
Jesus is the way
Please have mercy in your name
We can’t be righteous without you
Only your sacrifice is true
VERSE 2:
Nobody is perfect you see
All have fallen short of the glory
We need salvation in deed
That’s the matter of fact, the story
So who can make us right
When we just don’t get it right
The flesh keeps knocking us down
And we keep losing the fight
There is a war that is raging
Oh yeah Captives are taken
Cos people are lying to themselves
Everybody is faking
We have to come to the Lord
And say have mercy on us
We need you now
Oh Lord
CHORUS 2:
Jesus is the way
Please have mercy in your name
We can’t be righteous without you
Only your sacrifice is true
BRIDGE:
Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord
Shall be saved. Save Saved 4x
Spoken: John 3:16-17
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
CHORUS 3:
Jesus is the way
Please have mercy in your name
We can’t be righteous without you
Only your sacrifice is true
