Audio By Carbonatix

GRAMMY-winning, multi-Platinum-selling group Casting Crowns has hit a major milestone of 20 years together.

In retrospect, with all the successes the band has enjoyed, their overriding central conclusion is – this is all because of God’s mercy. Nowhere is that more vividly reflected than in this music video the band has put together.

"All Because of Mercy" Lyrics

I could stand here 
And try to tell you 
I found my way here on my own 
Brought to life this heart of stone 
Made up my own mind 
To change my own life 
Working my own way to good 
As if anybody could 
 
But the truth is I’ve been broken since my very first breath 
And the truth is I’ve been wandering since my very first step 
 
I know the only reason 
I can stand here unashamed 
Is not because I’m worthy 
It’s all because of mercy 
There’s no way that I could earn it 
Praise God my debt is paid 
It’s not because I’m worthy 
It’s all because of mercy 
 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
It’s all because of mercy
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
 
I still remember 
The day He found me 
6 feet under all my shame 
I heard Him call me out by name 
Hallelujah 
The cross has spoken 
Jesus my Savior bled and died 
To bring this deadman back to life 
 
I know the only reason 
I can stand here unashamed 
Is not because I’m worthy 
It’s all because of mercy 
There’s no way that I could earn it 
Praise God my debt is paid 
It’s not because I’m worthy 
It’s all because of mercy 
 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
It’s all because of mercy
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
 
Just as desperate for you now 
As I was back then 
If I ever should forget 
Remind me once again 
Just as desperate for you now 
As I was back then 
If I ever should forget 
Remind me once again 
Once again

I know the only reason 
I can stand here unashamed 
Is not because I’m worthy 
It’s all because of mercy 
There’s no way that I could earn it 
Praise God my debt is paid 
It’s not because I’m worthy 
It’s all because of mercy 
 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
It’s all because of mercy
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)

It’s not because I’m worthy
It’s all because of mercy
Hallelujah
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
It’s all because of mercy
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
