running from mercy

jones, rickie lee

oh

sacred patience with my soul abide

there's a rainbow above me that the storm clouds hide

and kind words will never die

'cause the magic in kindness springs from the love

love

love

little acts of kindness and little words of love

make our earthly home heaven above

and there is no sorrow heaven cannot heal

abide within

no cross

no crown

running from mercy

hidden and coy

swimming upstream down oceans of joy

die in the arms of a natural life

waking our happiness drowning in light

waking our happiness drowning in light

little acts of kindness

little words of love

make our earthly home like heaven above

and there is no sorrow heaven cannot heal

abide within

no cross

no crown

this thing was not born with wings

slow to stop our ways sing

running from mercy

hidden and coy

swimming upstream down oceans of joy

die in the arms of a natural life

waking our happiness drowning in light

waking our happiness drowning in light

running from mercy

hidden and coy

swimming upstream down oceans of joy

die in the arms of a natural life

waking our happiness drowning in light

waking our happiness drowning in light

running from mercy

hidden and coy

swimming upstream down oceans of joy

die in the arms of a natural life

waking our happiness drowning in light

waking our happiness drowning in light

you

you wake up

come on boy

come on

little boy

don't you stop her

don't you stop her

there's that door

i've got that door

i know where that door is

just follow me and you wake up

come on with me

tomorrow
