An accessible, playable, affordable, singable, flexible liturgy for any denomination. |

Welcome to the Lord Have Mercy Liturgy home. We hope you will take a few minutes and sample this liturgy for its possible use in your worship setting. This liturgy was born out of our desire to have something that a church could learn to play and sing easily without compromising theological or liturgical integrity. And best of all, it's free! All we ask is that you register with us and give us a little feedback on its use in your context.
It works great played simply with guitar or keyboard of your choice or with full band as well. We know because we use it in our churches! You can browse the score below, listen to some demos and download the entire score and audio files (both with and without vocals) as well. Some churches even choose to use the demos as accompaniment tracks in worship and that's cool too. And the download includes the full work in single page and booklet form as well as individual graphic files ready to insert into your worship guide as needed.
Check it out and we would love to hear from you about your experience with Lord Have Mercy.

"This is a wonderful liturgy!
Very theologically and liturgically based!" Pastor Matthew - Mason, MI |
"My first experience singing Lord, Have Mercy was one of glad surprise at its ease of use, and of profound gratitude for the way it led me into worship with the community of faith."
Pastor John - Gainesville, FL |
"We have used this liturgy with guitar and piano, bluegrass ensemble and praise band; and it works in the sanctuary, at camp or the off-site worship service."
