Mercyís incantation

We are Healed

 

Mercyís incantation

Death securedÝ our sure salvation

Raised to new creation

Miracle of reconciliation

In the mystery revealed

By his wounds we are healed.

 

The impossible we find

Here in our saviorís mind

The impossible we seek to do

All things are possible in You.

We become the righteousness of God in You.

 

In suffering and pain

We discover loss is gain

For even though we die we live

Yet not I but by the life Christ gives

Throughout history concealed

By his wounds we are healed

 

We lose if we seek life to retain

In losing life weÝ discover loss is gain

Power is perfected

In the stone that was rejected

Weakness is the strength ofÝ stone

Laid down before the presence of the throne

 

The impossible we find

Here in our saviorís mind

The impossible we seek to do

All things are possible in You.

We become the righteousness of God in You.

 

In this fellowship of suffering

We bind ourselvesÝ as offerings

A pleasing sacrifice

For we are found in Christ

And our hemhorraging heart is sealed

By his wounds we are healed.
