Merciful Father

By Matt Redman

Lyrics

Merciful Father

We have wandered from Your ways

Sinned against heaven

And against Your holy name

We haven’t loved You with a whole heart

We haven’t loved our neighbour as ourselves

But You’re a merciful Father

You’re a merciful Father


 O, You’re rich in love

You’re rich in love, so rich in love

O, You’re good to us

You’re good to us, so good to us

What a beautiful kindness

What a gift of forgiveness

O, You’re in rich in love

You’re rich in love, so rich in love


You are faithful forever

And we will turn our hearts to You

You’re the gift and the Giver

Every day Your mercy new

Now to love You with a whole heart

Now to love our neighbour as ourselves

You’re a merciful Father

You’re a merciful Father


O, You’re rich in love

You’re rich in love, so rich in love

O, You’re good to us

You’re good to us, so good to us

What a beautiful kindness

What a gift of forgiveness

O, You’re in rich in love

You’re rich in love, so rich in love


Now to love You with a whole heart

Now to love our neighbour as ourselves

Now to love You with a whole heart

Now to love our neighbour as ourselves


O, You’re rich in love

You’re rich in love, so rich in love

O, You’re good to us

You’re good to us, so good to us

What a beautiful kindness

What a gift of forgiveness

O, You’re in rich in love

You’re rich in love, so rich in love


What a beautiful kindness

What a gift of forgiveness

O, You’re in rich in love

You’re rich in love, so rich in love
