How could he recognise me? I wasn’t the same
I knew I should pay, and I knew the price
For justice and law demanded my life
But his tender heart heard my desperate cry
And he saw my past through merciful eyes
Beautiful - that’s how mercy saw me
Though I was broken and so lost
Mercy looked past all my faults
The justice of God saw what I had done
Mercy saw me through the Son
Not what I was, but what I could be
That’s how mercy saw me
Whatever you’ve done, you can’t go too far
That his eyes of mercy can’t see where you are
He loves you too much to leave you alone
You’re flesh of his flesh and bone of his bone
And his heart cries out for your heart today
See yourself through his eyes, and then you can say:
Sin had stolen my dignity and all my self-esteem
But I was made brand-new again when mercy looked at me
Beautiful - that’s how mercy saw me
Though I was broken and so lost
Mercy looked past all my faults
The justice of God saw what I had done
Mercy saw me through the Son
Not what I was, but what I could be
That’s how mercy saw me
