If you've been there you know,
If you're still there hang on.
Remember that you are not the only one out there and God loves you regardless.
If you or someone you know has been there, type in the comments...
Mercy in the middle.
___________________________________________
I see her as a little girl hiding in her room
She takes another bath and she sprays her mommas perfume
To try to wipe away the scent he left behind
But it haunts her mind.
You see shes his little rag, nothing more than just a waif
And hes mopping up his need, she is tired and afraid
Maybe shell find a way through these awful years to disappear.
Ask me if I think theres a God up in the heaven
Where did he go in the middle of her shame?
Ask me if I think theres a God up in the heavens
I see no mercy and no one down heres naming names
Nobodys naming names.
Now shes looking in the mirror at a lovely woman face
No more frightened little girl, like shes gone without a trace
Still she leaves the light burning in the hall
Its hard to sleep at all.
Still she crawls up in her bed acting quiet as a mouse
Deep inside shes listening for a creaking in the house
But noones left to harm her, shes finally safe and sound
Theres a peace shes found.
Ask her how she knows theres a God up in the heaven
Where did he go in the middle of her shame?
Ask her how she knows theres a God up in the heavens
She said his mercy is bringing her life again.
Ask me how I know theres a God up in the heaven
(how do you know? )
Where did he go in the middle of her shame
(where did he go? )
Ask me how I know theres a God up in the heavens
(how do you know? )
She said his mercy is bringing her life again
Shes coming to life again.
Hes in the middle of her pain
In the middle of her shame
Mercy brings life
Hes in the middle
Mercy in the middle.
So ask me how I know
Ask me how I know, yeah
Ask me how I know theres a God up in the heaven
(how do you know? )
Ask me how I know theres a God up in the heavens
(how do you know? )
Yeah, ask me how I know
(how do you know? )
Ask me
Ask me
Ask me how I know
(how do you know? )
Theres a God up in the heavens
Ask me how I know theres a God up in the heavens.
me being a male know how it feels to have no one you could talk to after going through it. No one deserves to go though this ever. once is to much. was lost for many years after but this song has helped me so much
One of the hardest things is if you're a man and have been a victim when you were younger. I'm 33, and it's been more than 20 years and sometimes it still makes me feel like I'm less of a man.
I'm so sorry. And I don't even know what you've been through, I can't imagine. I don't even pretend. However, you are still a person..😢 💔
My wife is a survivor, bravest person I have ever met
This was a good video! I remember when I believed in God; I found incredible comfort in this song. I am happy, even not believing in God, but I am happy that it brought me happiness at one point in time.
When I hear this song it makes me cry because my daughter was abuse by her father and she is still trying to recover,her mental health is extremely hard ,she needs help but won't let anyone help her ☹️
This is one of the most powerful songs I've ever heard. I'm surprised that Amy Grant took the situation to heart so closely, am surprised that Amy Grant was so motivated to create this song.
I believe that people can recieve healing physically, mentaly, emotionaly, and spiritually. I believe that anything and everything that has been stolen, peace of mind, innocence, or even confidence and anything else can be given back because God is giving and caring. He created the whole world, people, life, animals, and everything else that is good and I believe that since He creates, He can also resore our bodies to the state they are ment to be. Did He not die to make us pure?
Hanging on daily...For 40 years now
John Salmeier God bless you.
Oh Jesus please help me, it's been 51+yrs... Oh save the children
my fave song I found this song as a child from a counsiler an I just loved it thru out the years forgot about the song till just now...
Matthew 21:22 - "If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."
Ephesians 3:20 - "Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen."
Matthew 7:7 "Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you."
Magnificent song...artist...video...message...God Bless all who have abused♥♥♥
*** I have found that the ONLY peace I ever knew was when I asked Jesus to help me. I felt love like no other. He has kept me from suicide. He has helped me more than any human can. He has some supernatural love that cannot be described totally. It is not church...it is Jesus alone. I would suggest Him to anyone hurting and whose lives have been devestated in any way.
Quite possibly the best Sims-based video I have ever seen. Very powerful and uplifting song, and very well done syncing it to the video. Great job, and thank you for it. As you said in the description, mercy in the middle.
Very good, everything in the song matched awesomely. *****!
Heart in motion amy Grant CD
This song always gets me !!!!!!!!!!!!
God does not "do" abuse. It is misleading to state that he does everything for a reason. He allowed man to have a free will and unfortunately man is evil and does abuse. Be thankful you don't know what it is like. God is just as upset as the person being abused. He comes alongside to comfort and help the broken hearted and he has a special place in his heart for the broken hearted. He can use what has happened to a person after they have received his healing but he didn't cause the abuse.
oh how I know ....... thank You for being there in my shame
God does every thing for a reason, no matter how horriffic it may seem or horendous it is. And he uses them to bring us closer to him. I may not know what its like but I know that I dont Want to ever be there
Check out 2:49 - it's like the Lord is saying 'yes, I came to heal her; I also came for you, as well'. Yeah...He did! John 3:16 makes that clear enough!
I love this song b/c it's so powerful. The words are so simple, yet there's such profound meaning & intense emotion behind it. God is the message of hope and love & He's always right there with you, mercy in the middle.
But I LOVE this video! Is this the Sims? I am a Sims fanatic, but I've never done anything like that. I think they're funny! You did an awesome job on this video! Very creative! I'm impressed! Love it!
Wow, that was intense...very good job!
I have long since forgiven him for doing it. I was seven and he was on drugs. But when Will God help me to forgive her for her reaction when I tried to tell?
i love this song, good video :]
mercy in the middle
*~*bee*~*
Mercy in the middle.
great video man!!
GOD BLESS YA ALL!
Thank u for this
i love this! the sims animation with the song! has amy seen this? you should send this to her somehow. this song triggered memories of abuse by my stepfather and holding it in almost destoyed me at 17. i'm 36 now and by God's grace i'm finally starting to deal w/ this w/ no psych meds whatsoever. for the full story pm me here.
@TopangaFilms I dont' want justice. Not the way most people look at it. I want to be able to look at her without remembering the day she almost killed me. I don't want her to suffer for it. I want to stop suffering myself. not pass it on to her.
Every time I hear this song, I think of the victims of the Penn State molestation scandal. I know, the victims were all boys and this song is about a molested girl. To that I say, to-MAY-toe meet toh-MAHT-oe. All tears are the same. I wonder how the victims are recovering now.
@shaloneithne I am sorry, I didn't state that clearly. What I ment to say by justice was not a worldy justice but a kind that is fulfilled by God. God sees all and He knew you went through those painful times so when I say you should claim your justice, I mean you have the right to peace of mind. YOu have the right to forgivness. You have a wound that needs healing and God is ready. I ment because Satan stole your peace and you desireve it back. Look up Katie Souza on TH-cam. She will explain.
@shaloneithne God will help you forgive when you choose to let go of what Satan has stold and start telling God that you are ready for justice. God never steals the bible states that Satan, The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; and that has come that we may have life, and have it to the full.(John 10:10)
@seentoomuch100 theres 1000s of places Ladies can go but if you are a male then most of the time sorry a lot of the time males that go through this kind of thing commit suicide because they feel isolated & scared too get help they are looked down upon be their peers or do other more drastic things & before any of you say anything or go to judge UM HELLO I'm talking with experience here was once male now female so how much more experience do you need so ya I'm screwed forever now!!
@earthalien77 That is so beyond true! I have experienced the same unexplainable love. It is just as you have spoken. It is supernatural! I tell you what; God is the Life, the Way and the Truth!
As a survivor of child sexual abuse I cannot help but take this song to heart...However, as my abuse also included physical & mental, molesters, an exhibitionist, porn addicts, & voyeurs; this video was a bit disturbing. Personally, I would have left out the kissing, the tight clothes, & the short-shorts-as the majority of survivors tend to "over-dress"...and some of those scenes can be rather difficult triggers for us...
I know you didn't ask me but I don't think that was sexual abuse. As long as you weren't uncomfortable. When I was little my mom kissed me on the lips; I think in your case it was a parent-child thing.
are you serious?
amy sounds like she maybe has been thru some chit herself
@TopangaFilms I'm trying to understand just what your credentials are. What do you know about the depth of the damage done in an abuse situation? Yes, God will heal but there's no need to pay someone for God to do that. Shame on you if you are trying to capitolize off of an already tragic situation.
Isn't she dating a guy that looks just like her father...creepy
true evil is beautiful
This is the most hilarious trash I've ever seen in my life. Laughed until I cried at her hitting the baby.
