(x7)
[Verse 1]
C G Am F C
When the blood curdlin' scream, Of the fear in my vains.
G Am F C
Pierces the darkness, circlin' my brain.
G Am F C
When the pain in my soul, is too great to explain.
G Am F C
I reach out for you, I'm callin' your name.
[Chorus 1]
C7 F Bb F C
Lord, please have mercy, on my troubled soul.
G Am F C
You keep me together, when there's nothing to hold.
C7 F Bb F C
Lord, please have mercy, I've nowhere to go.
G Am F C
When the temptation is over, please carry me home.
[Verse 2]
G Am F C
Would the jewel of deception, rest in the crown.
G Am F C
Upon the heaven, the tempter, who's hand keeps me down.
G Am F C
Living so carlessly, so easy to do.
G Am F C
But now that I'm paying, Oh I’m running to you.
[Chorus 2]
C7 F Bb F C
Lord, please have mercy, on my troubled soul.
G Am F C
You keep me together, when there's nothing to hold.
C7 F Bb F C
Oh, Lord, please have mercy, I've nowhere to go.
G Am F C C C C
When the temptation is over, please carry me home.
