LYRICS; “Mercy Say No”

LYRICS; ‘MERCY SAY NO’ – CECE WINANS
I was just a child, when I felt the Savior leading
I was drawn to what I could not understand
And for the cause of Christ, I have spent my days believing
That what He’d have me be, is who I am
As I’ve come to see the weaker side of me
I realize His grace is what I’ll need
When sin demanded justice for my soul
[Chorus]
Mercy said no
I’m not gonna let you go
I’m not gonna let you slip away
You don’t have to be afraid
Mercy said no
sin will never ever take control
Life and death stood face to face
Darkness tried to steal my heart away carry for 3 beats …
Thank You Jesus, Mercy said no carry it for 5 beats…..
For God so loved the world, that He sent His son to save us
From the cross He built a bridge to set us free
Oh, but deep within our hearts, there is still a war that rages
And makes a sacrifice so hard to see
As midnight fell on crucifixion day
The light of hope seemed oh so far away
As evil tried to stop redemption’s flow
[Repeat Chorus]
[Bridge]
And now when heaven looks at me
It’s through the blood of Jesus
Reminding me of one day long ago
[Repeat Chorus]
SONG BY; CECE WINANS
VIEW POINT; When God sent his only begotten Son into the world because of his love towards humanity, his Son, Jesus lived a merciful life towards mankind. Men confessed about his mercy, when he healed the lame, opened the eyes of the blind, made the cripple stand and walk, healed diseases and other miracles he did that could not be mentioned in the bible because there were so much but all based on his love and his tender mercies for us. as if that wasn’t enough, he left his glorious kingdom of his Father for a cross, to be condemned of men and chastised, and died for our sin which is the greatest act of his mercy towards mankind. Cece Winans an American gospel singer, her name Priscilla Winans, must have experienced the mercy of God through Jesus Christ and she sings it today.
BeBe (Benjamin) and CeCe (Priscilla) Winans were born in Detroit, the seventh and eighth children of what has become the most celebrated musical family in the history of contemporary gospel music. Their parents, Delores and David (Mom and Pop) Winans, met while singing with the Lemon Gospel Chorus. Mom and Pop married in 1953, and quickly began producing a new generation of talented singers. Four of their older sons, Ronald, Carvin, Marvin, and Michael, formed The Winans, a Grammy-winning group which attained world-class status in its own right. The Winans family was close-knit, and Delores and David—who have themselves maintained performing careers—raised their children in a rigid, Christian atmosphere. The children were not allowed to go to parties or movies, and no secular music was played in the house.
