You took away my ball and chain
You take away all my shame
You still love me when I let you down
You promised me you'd always be around
And I know you love me
And I feel the need to thank you
Life's unfolding like a love letter
Under your mercy, under your mercy, Jesus
I could find my shelter forever
Under your mercy, under your mercy, mercy Lord
On my own I slip and fall
Left alone I'd lose it all
But instead, I lift my head and there I find
Faith and hope and love and peace that blows my mind
And I know you love me
And I feel the need to thank you
Life's unfolding like a love letter
Under your mercy, under your mercy, Jesus
I could find my shelter forever
Under your mercy, under your mercy, mercy Lord
Now that the Holy Ghost is haunting me
I'm a child of light eternally

Life's unfolding like a love letter

You still love me when I let you down
You promised me you'd always be around
And I know you love me
And I feel the need to thank you
Life's unfolding like a love letter
Under your mercy, under your mercy, Jesus
I could find my shelter forever
Under your mercy, under your mercy, mercy Lord
On my own I slip and fall
Left alone I'd lose it all
But instead, I lift my head and there I find
Faith and hope and love and peace that blows my mind
And I know you love me
And I feel the need to thank you
Life's unfolding like a love letter
Under your mercy, under your mercy, Jesus
I could find my shelter forever
Under your mercy, under your mercy, mercy Lord
Now that the Holy Ghost is haunting me
I'm a child of light eternally
