Verse 1
On a hill called Calvary
Stands an endless mercy tree
Ev'ry broken weary soul
Find your rest and be made whole
Stripes of blood that stain its frame
Shed to wash away our shame
From the scars pure love released
Salvation by the mercy tree

Verse 2
In the sky between two thieves
Hung the blameless Prince of Peace
Bruised and battered scarred and scorned
Sacred head pierced by our thorns
It is finished was His cry
The perfect Lamb was crucified
His sacrifice our victory
Our Savior chose the mercy tree

Verse 3
Hope went dark that violent day
The whole earth quaked at Love's display
Three days silent in the ground
This body born for Heaven's crown
On that bright and glorious day
When Heaven opened up the grave
He's alive and risen indeed
Oh praise Him for the mercy tree

Chorus
Death has died love has won
Hallelujah hallelujah
Jesus Christ has overcome
He has risen from the dead

Verse 4
One day soon we'll see His face
Ev'ry tear He'll wipe away
No more pain or suffering
Praise Him for the mercy tree

Ending
On a hill called Calvary
Stands an endless mercy tree
