Words by Mester, music by Baird
Even before the mirror fell
I didn’t know myself so well
And now I’m staring at this wall
And I can’t see myself at all
Maybe I should have listened
Maybe you think too much, she said
But I don’t know what to do
With all these words inside my head
Can you come and comfort me
Open up these weary eyes
Let your mercy cover me
Like a thousand lullabies
And the rain bleeds slow
And the tears of grace flow
I’m lifted up – Down in the Mercy River
