Amanda Cook Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My sin forgiven
I'm blameless in your sight
My history rewritten
'Cause you delight in showing mercy
And mercy triumphs over judgment
You delight in showing mercy
Oh, love great love
Fear cannot be found in you
And there will never be a day
You're uncertain of the ones you choose
'Cause you delight in showing mercy
And mercy triumphs over judgment
You know you delight in showing mercy
And mercy triumphs judgment
So I will awake and spend my days
Loving the one who has raised me up
From death to life, from wrong to right
You're making all things beautiful
So I will awake and spend my days
Loving the one who has raised me up
From death to life, from wrong to right
You're making all things beautiful
So I will awake and spend my days
Loving the one who has raised me up
From death to life, from wrong to right
You're making all things beautiful
So I will awake and spend my days
Loving the one who has raised me up
From death to life, from wrong to right
You're making all things beautiful
And you delight in showing mercy
And mercy triumphs over judgment
And delight in showing mercy
And mercy triumphs judgment
The song Mercy by Amanda Cook is a powerful message of redemption and hope. The lyrics speak of the singer's past mistakes and sins being forgiven, and her history being rewritten by the mercy of God. The chorus, which repeats throughout the song, emphasizes the concept that God takes great pleasure in showing mercy to His people, and that this mercy is more powerful than any judgment or condemnation.
The opening lines of the song set the tone, as the singer declares her past has been embraced and her sins have been forgiven. She goes on to say that in God's sight, she is blameless, and that her entire history has been rewritten. This is a powerful message of redemption, as it speaks of the transformative power of God's grace to change a person's entire identity.
The chorus is where the song's message really hits home, as it emphasizes that God's delight in showing mercy is more potent than any judgment or condemnation. This is a comforting message, as all Christians have their share of struggles and sins that they wrestle with. The idea that God delights in showing mercy, that it is His first response to His people, is a reminder that no matter how far we may have strayed, we are never beyond redemption in His eyes.

Glory to God, our comforter in this time of trouble. For He is worthy of our praise, and He is Ever Faithful to deliver us from this troubled temporal world into the New Heaven and earth. New Jerusalem. So well cited, Lauren. We are as filthy rags, yet He has given us the free gift of eternal salvation. All we must do is accept Him into our hearts, confess our sins, turn from sin, and TRUST in Him for ALL THINGS. Thank you Jesus!!!!
