Refrain:
Aye Orun o pe bi, ko de gbin (The birds of the air do not sow but do not go hungry)
Emi o ni pe bi odaju (I will not suffer hunger, it is certain)
Ewe igbo o ranso to n wo o (The wild flowers don’t spin or weave their clothing)
Temi a ni nira dandan mi (Mine will not be difficult, I’m sure)
Toba le sewa, f’ohun ti o le mi (He beautifies that which cannot breathe)
Melo melo lemi eh? (How much for me?)
To ba le sewa, f’ohun ti o le mi (He beautifies that which cannot breathe)
Akuku se temi odaju (He ill surely do mine, it is assured)

O ti fohun nipa oro mi (He has commanded concerning me)
O nipe k’emi ma ba won s’aniyan o (He said I shouldn’t have doubts)
Omo kiniwun le saini (The lion cubs may suffer hunger)
Omo Olorun ko ni bawon riru re o (A child of God will never share their fate)
Kosi b’ogun k’ogun sele po (No matter how fierce the battle)
Oro re ko ni mo diran mo (I stand firmly on His unfailing Word)
Oluwa lo luso agutan mi (The Lord is my Shepherd)
Emi ki o se alayini (I shall not want)

(Refrain)

Toba le femi omo re nikan soso rubo (He did not spare His only Son)
Tori ese mio (Because of my sins)
Melo melo lohun ti mo ni lo, ti o le se (What then is beyond His power to do for me?)
Emi tiso domo ni mo ni (I have the Spirit of Adoption)
Ki ma i se emi eru la ti seru (It is not a spirit that enslaves me to fear)
Mo mo oba lemi n se (I’m the Kings own child)
A gbodo ri awo dansaki lara mi o(You must see the splendor of royalty upon me)
Baba mi le se johun kohun (My Father can do exceedingly, abundantly)
Ti mo lero ta bi ti mo le bere lo (Above all I could ever ask or imagine)
Tori mo gbeke mi le o (For I put my trust in You)
E mi ti j’asegun lo (I am more than a conqueror)

Oh…

Toba le sewa, f’ohun ti o le mi (He beautifies that which cannot breathe)
Melo melo lemi eh? (How much for me?)
To ba le sewa, f’ohun ti o le mi (He beautifies that which cannot breathe)
Akuku se temi odaju (He ill surely do mine, it is assured)

(Sung in Yoruba)

Refrain:
Ohun t’awon kan gbawe fun (While others labored to receive)
Lo se were (He freely gave me)
Omi ti won ni ko le san (They called it a drop)
To wa di ibu (But it became an ocean)
Mo ni bo se n s’ola re o (The mystery of His blessings)
Oun loye (Are known only by Him)
Anu ni o, anu ni (It’s mercy, it’s mercy)

A se iru emi le joba (Greatness for one like me felt impossible)
Owi ninu oro re, mo gba be (Until I saw it in Your Word, and I believed)
A se ireti tun wa fun gi agelori (I never knew a fallen tree could live again)
O boro re mu, mo gba be (But I found it in Your word, and I believe)
Omi odo to kan d’ele pada dun (Who new a bitter river could become sweet?)
Gege bi oro re, mo gba be (I found it in Your Word, and I believe it)
Anu ni, Anu ni! (It’s mercy, it’s mercy!)

(Refrain)

T’oba je ile mo ti wa (If it was based on my family background)
Ko le kan mi (I wouldn’t be qualified)
Won ni no be him turn (They said it wasn’t his turn)
Owo yen so wipe kan gbe fun mi (But that Hand said “He’s next”)
Ere asapojude ti gbogbo won sa de fori mi
(The race that consumed my generation somehow evaded me)
Aidе mo wa wu mi o (Even my mistakes couldn’t stop)
Ko da ise olorun duro (What God had for me)
Ko da ise olorun duro o (What God had for me)

I was barely whispering Your Name
Didn’t even know the words to say
But somehow doors just opened up for me
Like You were waiting where I’d be
And I don’t understand it
That’s the flavor of mercy

(Refrain)
