Mercy on my Grave

Lyrics I walked this road with fire in my hands Every sin I’ve sown now stains this land Ain’t no preacher callin’ my name Ain’t no savior to take my blame Oh Lord, have mercy on my grave I’ve run too long, too far to save Let the rain fall down, wash my sins away Oh Lord, have mercy on my grave I hear the wind, it speaks in tongues It tells me time has come undone A shadow waits where the gallows stand With a rope in his hands and blood on the sand Oh Lord, have mercy on my grave I’ve run too long, too far to save Let the rain fall down, wash my sins away Oh Lord, have mercy on my grave The dust will settle, the sky burns red I’ll lay my soul where the lost men tread If heaven waits, it don’t wait for me Just the howlin’ wind and an empty dream Oh Lord, have mercy on my grave I’ve run too long, too far to save Let the rain fall down, wash my sins away Oh Lord, have mercy on my grave #music #rock #blues #outlawmusic #darkcountry #country #bluegrass #outlaws #outlawcountrymusic #darkfolk #americana #southernrock #americanamusic #countrymusic #banjomusic © 2025 Aventhis.
