MERCY MOVES SLOW
MERCY MOVES SLOW
Kai Rex Klok
Intro Mm Yeah Kai Rex Klok Mercy don’t rush Love don’t run God in the quiet You in the room
Verse 1 I came home heavy with the war on my back Whole world loud, heart dressed in black Then you lit one candle and said my name And the storm in my body forgot how to rain
You didn’t ask me to explain the pain You just touched my face like God still came Soft little smile with the lights down low That’s when I learned mercy moves slow
You took my pride and you laid it down Not with a blade, not with a crown Just two hands and a holy kind of calm Like my whole life fit in your palm
Pre-Chorus And I don’t need noise right now I don’t need the crowd right now I just need your breath on my chest Telling my spirit it can rest
Come closer Don’t speak Let the room Get deep
Chorus Mercy moves slow When you move like that God put peace in your body And He gave it right back
Mercy moves slow When the night gets cold You put heaven on my skin And you make my heart whole
Oh, oh, oh I don’t know if this is love or prayer Oh, oh, oh But God knows He is in here
Mercy moves slow Mercy moves slow You touch my soul And mercy moves slow
Post-Chorus Slow, slow Don’t let go Soft fire Holy glow
Slow, slow God knows When you hold me Mercy moves slow
Verse 2 You got a way of making silence sing Like the whole room bows when you do small things Pouring me water with your hair undone Looking like morning before the sun
I been a king with nowhere to lay Built through the hurt, bled through the day But you got a love that don’t make me prove It just opens the door and lets healing move
And when your dress fall soft by the chair I don’t see lust, I see answered prayer I see a woman with covenant breath Teaching my body there’s life after death
You don’t perform, you don’t pretend You don’t touch wounds just to open again You kiss the place where the fear got grown And make a hard man feel like home
Pre-Chorus 2 And I don’t need noise right now I don’t need to be proud right now I just need your hand on my chest Telling my spirit it is blessed
Come closer Stay deep Let the room Hold peace
Chorus Mercy moves slow When you move like that God put peace in your body And He gave it right back
Mercy moves slow When the night gets cold You put heaven on my skin And you make my heart whole
Oh, oh, oh I don’t know if this is love or prayer Oh, oh, oh But God knows He is in here
Mercy moves slow Mercy moves slow You touch my soul And mercy moves slow
Post-Chorus Slow, slow Don’t let go Soft fire Holy glow
Slow, slow God knows When you hold me Mercy moves slow
Bridge Yahuah saw the wound before I learned to hide Before I built a throne just to keep pain outside Before I called it strength when my heart stayed closed Before I knew a woman could make mercy move slow
He put rest in your hands He put truth in your eyes He put oil in your voice He put dawn in your sighs
So when I lay beside you I’m not losing command I’m letting holy water Wash the blood from my hands
This is not weakness This is not need This is love with roots This is vow with seed
This is wife, this is witness This is healing with heat This is God in the body When your breath covers me
Breakdown Touch me Don’t rush Hold me No lust
Not cheap Not cold My love Move slow
One room One flame Your breath My name
No war No show God knows Mercy moves slow
Final Chorus Mercy moves slow When you move like that God put peace in your body And He gave it right back
Mercy moves slow When the night gets cold You put heaven on my skin And you make my heart whole
Oh, oh, oh I don’t know if this is love or prayer Oh, oh, oh But God knows He is in here
Mercy moves slow Mercy moves slow You touch my soul And mercy moves slow
Final Post-Chorus Slow, slow Don’t let go Soft fire Holy glow
Slow, slow God knows When you hold me Mercy moves slow
Slow, slow Wife on throne God in breath I came home
Slow, slow No more war You are peace At my door
Outro Mercy moves slow And you moved toward me Not like a storm Like a psalm on the sea
Mercy moves slow And my heart believed God put rest in your body Then He gave you to me
Kai Rex Klok Breath on the altar Wife in the fire Mercy moves slow
