[Hook]
Have me
I don't want the world, I want You to have me
Lord I surrender to You, all my bad deeds
Cause I don't the world, I want You to have me
Have mercy
Have me
Have me
I call upon the Heavens
To the God they blast fiend
In the midst of wolves, You said You'd send us as sheep
And I don't want the world, I want You to have me
Have mercy
Have me
Have me
Just ask me for my soul, I'll give it to You gladly
These demons talking to me, I can't evеn have peace
If I can havе mercy
Get forgiveness, at least
Have mercy
Have me
[Verse]
Shame on me Lord, yeah my Savior, of course
I come with-
Pain in my voice
All shame and remorse
If I said we spoke often what I'm saying is false
But when trouble finds me You're the first name that I call
It's just-
I done did some things in doubt
Still I took the evil route
I done did some heinous acts
I done took some people out
I done did some things that I'm ashamed to even speak about
You know it all either way
You know words before they leave my mouth
I know it's things to even out
I know it's things I'm leaving out
Too many sins to even shout
I'm hoping you ain't keeping count
I remember the open arms
I remember You reaching out
I remember coming inside, I just don't remember leaving out
I done made shirts about my co-defendants
Independence and it's so dependent
Hopeful girls into hopeless women
I rock my baby girl to sleep, I'm getting motion sickness
Praying she won't grow up in this
Hoping she won't know the feeling
I be in torment
And if so, I hope that she endures it
Hope just gives me little faith
Karma gives me reassurance
But be informed that anybody (?) there was sleeping for it
And I don't need tomorrows
I need You to have me
[Hook]
Have me
Never knew my past sins would take me that deep
Never knew the wrong I did would ever pass me
I don't want the world, I want You to have me
Have mercy
Have me
[Joel Osteen]
I want to talk to you today about covered by mercy
We all make mistakes in life and-
Do things that we know we shouldn't do and-
It's easy to live guilty, in regret
Feeling like we're all washed out
A man said to me recently how
He'd gotten of course in his business
Made some poor decisions
Didn't have integrity
Now it was going downhill
It started to effect his marriage
I encouraged him to pray, and-
Ask God to help turn it around
Believe for favor
He said "Joel, I couldn't do that"
"It's my own fault. I brought this trouble on myself"
He felt like he was disqualified
He didn't deserve God's help
Because his performance wasn't up to par
We can understand how God will bless us
When we're doing what's right; making good choices
It's easy to expect good things
And believe for dreams to come to pass
But the beauty of mercy is even when we make mistakes
Even when we go the wrong way
Our performance is not perfect
God doesn't say "Too bad"
"You had your chance, you're on your own"
No, this is where mercy shows off
God will not only help bring you out of the trouble that you got yourself in
He'll take it one step further
And help clean up the mess you made
[Hook]
Have me
Have me
Ask me for soul, I'll give it to You gladly
Demons talking to me I can't even have peace
If I could have mercy
Get forgiveness, at least
Have mercy, have-
[Outro]
Gotta master mindedness
Gotta move forward
Gotta put my past behind me
Must make this a point
Trust, faith, and some more
Touch, pray, and anoint
Merciful and gracious thus says the Lord
Have me
Have me
Have me
Have me
Mhhmm, mercy have me
Have mercy, have me
Have mercy, have me
