Mercy Built a Bridge

In a lowly cattle stable in Bethlehem
There were signs of new construction
On a mighty span
That in the hearts of all the lost
Would cast a shadow of the cross
'Cause that Babe of Mary's crib
Would soon be mercy's bridge

Home was just across the river
On Heaven’s side
But we were much too weak to swim
With no boat to ride
God made a way that couldn't fail
A wooden Cross, three old rusty nails
On Calvary’s rugged ridge
Mercy built a bridge

Now we can cross
But we must cross the Calvary way
That leads from night into the brightest day
Whеre Jesus died that you and I could livе
Leave all your guilt for mercy built a bridge

Now we can cross
But we must cross the Calvary way
That leads from night into the brightest day
Where Jesus died that you and I could live
Leave all your guilt for mercy built a bridge

Where Jesus died so that you and I could live
Leave all your guilt for mercy built a bridge
A bridge, Jesus is the bridge
