Have Mercy

from New Stuff by Paul Gioia

about

Based on Psalm 57 where David was hiding from Saul in very same cave Saul was taking a leak in. True fact, though not the main point of the story.

lyrics

(Psalm 57 – When David fled from Saul into the cave)

Ch 1.
Have mercy
Have mercy
I’ll hide my soul in you
In the shadow of your wings
Have mercy

1.
I cry out to God most high
My life is in His hands
He sends down from heaven above
To save me from arrows
God sends his love and faithfulness

Rpt Ch 1

2.I lie in the midst of lions
Surrounded by beasts of prey -
These people have tongues like swords
And smiles hiding arrows
God sends his love and faithfulness

Ch 2.
Be exalted
Be exalted
God in the heavens above
Let your glory shine on earth
Be exalted

3.
My heart is like a rock
I’ll sing and make music
Awaken O harp and lyre
Awaken my soul
I’ll wake the dawn

Rpt Ch. 2
