Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Would You look at me
Here in my frailty
Yeah, I've been living a lie
Believing that I could earn this

Would You look at us
We say we know Your love
And still we think if we fail
Somehow You won't be enough

But Your mercy is an ocean deep
Your grace is washing over me
Your love is like a wildfire chasing after me [x2]

It's more than I deserve
Before I've said a word
You know all of my fears
Every tear I will ever cry

And You keep reaching out
Far beyond my doubt
When I see all that You've done,
I'm overcome, I am swept away

'Cause Your mercy is an ocean deep
Your grace is washing over me
Your love is like a wildfire chasing after me [x2]

It's all, it's all that I can do
I surrender all I am to You
It's all, it's all that I can do [x2]

'Cause Your mercy is an ocean deep
Your grace is washing over me
Your love is like a wildfire chasing after me

Your mercy is an ocean deep
Your grace is washing over me
Your love is like a wildfire chasing after me [x2]
