His mercies are new ev'ry mornin'
And that's more to me than just an old familiar phrase
'Cause when I stumble on this path that I'm walkin',
It's His faithfulness that gets me through another day
In the humdrum in-and-out of routine things,
When my life is just survival by any means,
And I'm pushin' the envelope of mortal extremes
Then His love breaks through, without warnin'
Causes me to say that His mercies are new ev'ry mornin'
In this age of positive conditioning
It's so easy to hide the negativity
So when the pros are outweighed by all of the cons,
And you're searchin' to find a good-news response
But the wrong it seems to cancel all of the right,
It doesn't take much for you to realize
His mercies are new ev'ry mornin'
In a world of idealistic reasoning
It's so easy to trust your own philosophies
So if you're king of the mountain, ruler of all
Just remember your kingdom is subject to fall
When you're stranded by the ruins of your demise,
It doesn't take much for you to realize
His mercies are new ev'ry mornin'
