Hymn Lyrics Search - Name That Hymn

does anyone know who sings this song or does anyone have the lyrics, i cant remember the whole song

Everbodys trying to find their way living this life from day to day,

....................................It's flowing like a river clear and deep .................

Can't you hear mercy calling out your name.

please help me if you can

Chorus: I hear mercy calling, it's flowing like a river clear and deep. I hear mercy calling, that I could plunge beneath. Oh I've been in the dessert, one of the driest places. And I can still hear it today, I hear mercy calling out my name.
*I'm still looking for the verses.

First verse...still trying to find out who sings it.

Everybody's trying to find their way
Living this life from day to day
The road that your taking
The choices your making
Are they leading you astray?
That's when mercy will stand and shout
I'm gonna find a way to get you out
I hear mercy calling out your name.

I have found several versions of this song
The words are all slightly different
but have the same message
Here is a clear recording by Jerry Brownlow

does anybody know who the original singer is?

the version i know is by the palmer sisters

I know this is three years later but I think the group who sang this was called the Gospel Light Singers.

Jerry Brownlow's rendition:

Everybody's trying to find their way
Living this life from day to day
The choices your making
The road that your taking
Are they leading you astray
That's when mercy will stand and shout
I'm gonna find a way to get you out
Can't you hear mercy calling out your name.

Chorus
I hear mercy calling
Its flowing like a river clear and deep
I hear mercy calling
That I can plunge beneath
Though I've been in the desert and the dryer places
I can still hear it today
Can't you hear mercy calling out your name

So come to the riverside
Its flowing like a river deep and wide
And plunge beneath the waters of a safe refuge
Let it change your life
It's still the same amazing place
It's still amazing grace
Can't you hear mercy calling out your name

Chorus

I've been in the desert. I've been in the sun
I've traveled the raging sea
And I've come right back to realize
You're the only one I need

I do really appreciate your help, songinmyheart. Thank You, again.
