Mercy In The Wilderness

Every day that I walk with You
You break me down and You make me new
Though my faith is tried, this I know is true
There is mercy in the wilderness

Through the valley deep and the mountain high
You have been my strength and Your Word my guide
I have known Your grace through the tears I've cried
There is mercy in the wilderness

In the barren place where the hard winds blow
Oh my flesh cries out, "Lord refresh my soul!"

Oh the Lord is kind
And the Lord is good
He is faithful to His children
Through the fire and flood
He has with me stood
He gives mercy in the wilderness

Oh the chastening of the Father's hand
Yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness
Though our hope is born in sorrow there'll be joy at last
There is mercy in the wilderness

So I thank You Lord for my every trial
The Father's love confirms me as His child
