Mercy Seat (Live from Johannesburg) Lyrics[Verse 1]
I've been the judge, I've been the one
Assuming that I know what's best
Forgive me, Father, forgive me
I've sought my own justice, said in my heart
I'll do it my way instead
Forgive me, Father, forgive me
[Chorus]
Back to the mercy seat
Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity
You are enough for me
[Verse 2]
I've trusted the gift more than the Giver
Tried to sustain all I can
I'm sorry, Father, I'm sorry
For all of the times I held on too long
To things that belong in Your hands
I'm sorry, Father, I'm sorry, yes
[Chorus]
Back to the mercy seat
Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity
You are enough for me
Back to the mercy seat
Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity
You are enough for me
[Bridge]
I fall on my knees again and I repent
I'm willing to be purified
Here I seek Your face again and I repent
Lord, I put You first in my life
I fall on my knees again and I repent
I'm willing to be purified
Here I seek Your face again and I repent
Lord, I put You first in my life
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Put You first, put You first, oh-oh
[Bridge]
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
[Chorus]
Back to the mercy seat
Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity
You are enough for me
Back to the mercy seat
Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity
You are enough for me
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, You are enough for me
Yes, You are enough for me
[Interlude]
Yes, Jesus
Let this be our cry, Jesus
In Your churches, God
That we remember
You are more than enough, Jesus
That we remember that You are more than enough, Jesus
Let there be no compromise
Nothing else could satisfy
Only You, Jesus
Only You, Jesus
Oh, Holy Spirit, that You would break through our agendas
Break through our plans
Oh, that You would be the one thing
The only thing, Jesus
[Chorus]
Back to the mercy seat
Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity
You are enough for me
Back to the mercy seat
Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity
You are enough for me
[Bridge]
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
I'm running, I'm running, I'm running
[Chorus]
Back to the mercy seat
Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity
You are enough for me
Back to the mercy seat
Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity
You are enough, oh You are enough, oh You are enough
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, all I need, yeah
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, yeah
All I need, all I need, all I need, all I need
Oh, You're more than enough, yeah
[Outro]
Back to the mercy seat
Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity
You are enough for me
Back to the mercy seat
Lord, I am running, I'm running
Back to simplicity
You are enough for me, Jesus
