This is a strange familiar place The world that was and what's become are not the same I see the evidence of grace How far I've had to come to get me where I am today If justice had the only say Cause less than anything is more than I deserve But I can put the past away There's nothing left to judge, forgiveness is the final word
Everywhere I turn I see compassion but I'm learning Love is free to grow where Heaven's healing waters flow Though I may not understand I'm living in the land of mercy It seems I never have to ask I see the answer long before I see the need No longer looking to the past For what has been helps me remember what I used to be
Though I may walk through the valley below I will not fear because I know who rules this world I'm walking through (repeat)
I'm living in the land of mercy I'm living in the land of mercy.
