Verse 1) Monday morning and I’m down on my knees, I pray it’s going to be a good day. Walk the walk and talk the talk. In between I’ll find time to pray. But then that situation arose. And I don’t know just how it could be, that I said all of those things that I did. Oh Lord have mercy on me. `
Chorus; Oh Lord have mercy on me. I’m tossed about just like the waves of the sea. (Unison)Turning, churning like the waves of the sea…Oh Lord have mercy on me.
Music Interlude (the music of the chorus) Guitar
Verse 2) (back up ooh’s) I’m driving down out through the country, with the wind blowing through my hair. I know I’m cruising just a little too fast, but who in the world way out here’s gonna care.
But then I see a light flashing red white and blue with a siren just as loud as can be. Officer would you please have a heart and Oh Lord have mercy on me?
Chorus; Oh Lord have mercy on me. I’m tossed about just like the waves of the sea. (Unison)Turning, churning like the waves of the sea…Oh Lord have mercy on me.
Music Interlude (the music of the chorus x 2) Sax then piano
Verse 3) Lord how I remember, how you spoken to me, If I’d open my mouth, that you’d fill it for free. Humbly walk and I’ll show you the way. So that’s what I’ll do Lord, I’ll do it today. But just when it seems like there’s not that much to it. I sound like flip Wilson “the devil made me do it” if this is the way that it always will be then, Oh Lord, have mercy on me.
Chorus; Oh Lord have mercy on me. I’m tossed about just like the waves of the sea. (Unison)Turning, churning like the waves of the sea…Oh Lord have mercy on me.
Chorus) (Accapella) Oh Lord have mercy on me. I’m tossed about just like the waves of the sea. Turning, churning like the waves of the sea…Oh Lord have mercy on me.
Chorus :( music returns) Oh Lord, take a hold of my hand. Help me to walk. Teach me to stand. Make me to be everything I can be. Oh Lord have mercy on me. Tag: (ooh) Yesterday’s gone, thank goodness for me ;( ooh) Today, well I’ll just wait to see (ooh) Tomorrow, just might be a strike three? Lord have mercy on me.
