Alleluia! Mercy is God's Name
Lyrics
Quia miserando
Atque eligendo vidit
Ait illi sequereme
Miserere Deus
Secundum magnam
Misericordia tuam
Your name is mercy
O, mercy is Your name
Your name is mercy
O, mercy is Your name
God awaits us with open arms
Even when we refuse to seek
His mercy and forgiveness for
Our weakness
God desires that in His embrace
We find love and tenderness
His gentleness and His caress
Mercifying!
REFRAIN
God became like us
To show how much He loves,
How much He loves us
And to take upon Himself
All that enslaves,
Enslaves us.
CHORUS
Merciful is God
Steadfast in His love
And His faithfulness,
Alleluia
Wellspring of our joy
Source of love and peace
Everlasting hope
Alleluia
He forgives and forgets
And erases all our fears
Alleluia,
Mercy is God’s name!
