[E]Aidan you're [F#m7]young[E/G#], but Aidan you're g[A]row[/B]ing [C#m]fast[G#m] [A2] [/B]
[E]Me and your[F#m7] mom [E/G#] and all the l[A]ove[/B] we [C#m]have[G#m] [A2]
[G#m7]We can only t[A2]ake you so far[G#m7], as far as we c[A]an
But you n[A2]eed something more to[Badd4/A] guide your heart as you g[A2]row into [Badd4/A]a man
Chorus:
Let mercy l[B]ead l[E]et love be the st[A2]rength in your l[E]egs
And in [A2]every footprint [C#m]that you leave there'll [A2]be a drop of [F#m7]grace
If we can re[B]ach[E] beyond the [A2]wisdom of this a[E]ge, in[A2]to the foolish[C#m]ness of God
That f[A2]oolishness will save those who bel[F#m7]ieve
Although their [C#m]foolish hearts may break they will find p[A2]eace
And I'll [F#m7]meet you in that place where mercy l[E]eads[F#m7] [E/G#] [E]
Aidan the day, Aidan the day will come
You'll run the race that takes us way beyond
All our trials and all our failures and all the good we dream of
But you can't see yet where it is you're heading
But one day you'll see the face of love
CHORUS
...and I'll [F#m7]meet you in that place where mercy l[B]eads[E]

vamp:
Let mercy lead, let love be the strength in your legs
And in every footprint that you leave there'll be a drop of grace
If we can reach beyond the wisdom of this age
Into the foolishness of God, that foolishness will save
Let mercy l[B]ead[E]
