##(Verse 1) Open up the skies of mercy. Rain down the cleansing flood. Healing waters rise around us. Hear our cries, Lor d; let 'em rise. ##(Verse 2) We ca n feeel Your mercy falling. You a re turning our hearts back again. Hear our praises rise to heaven. Draw us near, Lord, meet us here. ##(Chorus 1) It's Your kindness, Lord, that leads us to repentance. Your f avor, Lord, is our d esire. It's Your beauty, Lord, that makes us stand in silence And Your love, Your love is better than life.
