Lacey Sturm - Mercy Tree (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) 

I was an atheist all my life ...til last January on the morning of my final suicide attempt. I was a Marilyn Manson-style Drag-Queen, (NYX Lipsticks were my favorite, especially in black) Who suffered from public harassment, verbal abuse, humiliation, i was mocked...all by the general public. I grew up in a judgemental legalistic abusive household. And i was on every anti-Depressant in the book. I suffered from Severe Chronic Manic depression, PTSD, Hallucinations Severe anxiety and had developmental issues in my brain. I ran out of my bedroom crying and screaming “I CANNOT live my life like this anymore, I’m gonna become a Christian” -this was the The moment when everything began to change. A couple months later on a warm Friday morning, I decided to make a BOLD decision to go to a church to get HELP, two dudes who {ACTUALLY Genuinely} cared about me began to pray for me....and I felt the depression, mental issues diminishing.... Then two days later, it was Easter Morning...I drove to the Church, NOT KNOWING what to expect....as the first Christian song “Resurrecting” by Elevation worship began to play .... I could feel the LOVE OF GOD -ROARING THROUGH MY HEART I began to Scream, 😭😭wail 😭😭😭😭and CRY 😭😭😭louder than all the insanely loud worship music, (it felt like a rock concert, where all I could feel was LOVE,😭😭😭 I Thought to myself “how can these people actually look at me without mocking me for my appearance” and WHAT THE HECK?!??! And “How can these people possible look at (ME) with such LOVE AND COMPASSION streaming like a waterfall out of their eyes!!?!??!” “Like ....Jesus LOVES me,...and he PREVENTED ALL MY SUICIDE Attempts...BECAUSE HE LOVES ME” THAT SAME MORNING, it’s called EASTER... My maker , Jesus, MY SAVIOR, WHOM I USED TO HATE, ...HEALED MY BRAIN AND MY HEART.. I’m now off every single one of those antidepressants, and am a {completely} HEALTHY INDIVIDUAL .... 🔥NO MORE Suicide , no more PTSD... NO MORE DEPRESSION... I discovered that Joy, and Happiness is WHO JESUS IS. And that without him, I could not be anything but suicidal and disabled.. Jesus LITERALLY HEALED me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!☀️🔆 ❤️JESUS. LOVES. US.❤️ 🔥JESUS. HEALS. US🔥

Pray for me as I break the chains of an opiate addiction thank you

I've almost lost all faith. But yet I find myself here. Pray for me please!

I have beat alcohol 30 yrs. Opiate addiction 9 year of that and other sins. Because I believed I got on my knees and prayed. I have Concord death. I am a child of God. Praise the Lord

I got to meet Lacey and her husband both. She took the time to talk to me, just not hi then bye. Lacey stood in front of me and talked me for longer then 20mins. Lacey hugged me, and prayed with me, and also for my healing. She also let me take a picture with herself and me. She kept my hope going!

I'm just curious like & comment if you are listening this music today. What country are you from?

You can see how passionate she is about Jesus Christ. You can see it in her eyes, and you can see her in her own little world as she sings to him. There's nothing commercial here. That's why I love her videos and music.

I was scared of the world and was mislead by idols but now by the glory of God I have found peace in my life. Praise God!

My father passed away suddenly last week, this song has offered comfort.

I heard this song locked down from that point on I was changed I don't do codeine anymore smoke weed or pop xanax hallelujah

Lacey's story makes me cry. she changed her life around and serves Jesus now. praise God.

I'm not a religious person. But the way this girl writes. And her angelic voice. Her lyrics with her other work saved my life. And for that I am greatful. Much love Lacy!

My Grandparents watched this on Thanksgiving, and my Granddad says "that girl can SING!" Who would've thought Lacey could bridge that gap between the music of my Granddad's day to mine?! So glad she did :) It is awesome to see her using the talents God has blessed her with to touch ALL generations, not just the youth. I think her story in particular touched him because we lost my Uncle to suicide a little over ten years ago. It was his only son. But losing any loved one that way is pain that I can't put into words. And then if it's your child on top of that, it's just a wound that will never fully heal. I'm thankful to Billy Graham for making this possible. It's a message that definitely means so much to me and my family. It's all about the cross

"One day soon we we'll see his face and every tear he'll wipe away. No more pain and suffering. Oh praise his name for the mercy tree." To me religion is a set of rules with too many do not do this or that. and possible lies written to suit what man wants to hear. Being a Christian to me is to being in a relationship with him, learning to be like him, to love as he did, to help someone come to know him as well for all eternity. . That is why it is so important to find a church that teaches from the living word of God. A place we can grow, be encouraged and become who the lord wants us to be. Instead of focusing on what we were , our shortcomings, dwelling on what happened in the past our future is in his hands. Every day is new... If I did not have my faith, my personal relationship with him I dont know where I would be.

Hallelujah. One day we shall see His face. He shall wipe all our tears.

Mercy Tree by Lacey Sturm Lyrics On a hill called Calvary Stands an endless mercy tree Every broken weary soul Find your rest and be made whole Stripes of blood that stain its frame Shed to wash away our shame From the scars pure love released Salvation by the mercy tree Verse 2 In the spot between two thieves Hung the blameless Prince of Peace Beaten, battered, scarred, and scorned Sacred head pierced by our thorns It is finished was his cry The perfect lamb was crucified His sacrifice, our victory Our Savior chose the mercy tree Verse 3 Hope went dark that violent day The whole earth quaked at love's display Three days silent in the ground This body born for heaven's crown On that bright and glorious day When heaven opened up the grave He's alive and risen indeed! Praise him for the mercy tree! Chorus Death has died, love has won Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Jesus Christ has overcome He has risen from the dead Verse 4 One day soon, we'll see his face And every tear, he'll wipe away No more pain or suffering Praise him for the mercy tree (Chorus 2x) On a hill called Calvary Stands an endless mercy tree

Thank you Lord for your mercy. 😊

Yes, Jesus is alive. Hallelujah!

If this song fails to move anyone, then I would say you need serious help, For your own sake, and your loved ones, May The Lord Bless You Whoever You Are. Amen. What a wonderful Song.

OH MY GOODNESS ... please allow me to like this 1million times over !!!! PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME !!!!!!

It is a shame this song wasn't as popular as it should have been. I feel something every time I hear it...

this song brings tears to my eyes, it's so powerful. It talks about our savior who gave his life for us and rose back from the dead to deliver us.

"In the sky between two thieves hung the blameless prince of peace"

I love this song. It always brings tears to my eyes.

Grew up in a Christian household but found myself chasing the pleasures of the flesh to realize that after all these years god has never stopped loving me forgive me father for I have sinned.

HAPPY RESURRECTION DAY TO EVERYONE

I love you Lord Jesus thank you for shedding your blood and defending death and the grave I'm so grateful for you saving me from my sins

Such powerful words. I get goosebumps every time I hear it....praise God

I love this song - "Every broken weary soul find your rest and be made whole." Thank you Jesus for what you did for all of us.

Her voice when she says, “death has died, LOVE has won” gives me goosebumps. It instantly makes me want to hit my knees in worship

Sadly, this sweet little video isn’t enough to rescue us from the clown show world we have to live in today. God save us all.

This is one of the few songs that brings me to tears every time I hear it. Jesus was faultless and did not deserve to be crucified between two criminals. In the form of a man, He had every right to choose to disobey The Father; however because of His love for us, He chose to be crucified so that we can have a relationship with Him. It was our sin that nailed Jesus to the cross, and it is our sin that His blood covers. He did not die to cover our sin so that we can continue to live in it, but to free us from it. I need to remember Jesus' sacrifice for me and to honor that sacrifice by living for Him.

I have watched this video a dozen times and it still brings tears to my eyes.

Wow, after hearing that, I'm almost glad she left Flyleaf to do this sort of thing o.O Never thought I'd say that.

This song gave me chills everywhere. THIS GIRL IS AMAZING. I've seen her history in a movie and I cried like a baby, but I didn't realized that she is the vocalist of Flyleaf, that's awesome! Her voice is so powerfull and beautiful. And she can do screamo!!! Wow!

Jesus loves you so much - He is speaking to you through this song. Give your life to Jesus please. Say this: Jesus, I accept you into my life. I love you Jesus and I’m ready to accept you into my life. I believe you died and rose again from the grave three days later. I love you Jesus, thank you for forgiving me of my sins as I accept you into my life Jesus, forgive me Lord. In Jesus’ name amen❤️

Can y'all please pray for my only son ian who is agnostic or atheist. I type in tears as he drinks, smokes but it a wonderful person. A fine man. Pls ask Father to draw him to Jesus Christ. Ty

This girl has a calling on her life. God is going to use you in a big way darling! When you sing, you sing to God from your heart and people feel it! I say AMEN and just let Him use you dear! He's bigger than anything you haven't faced before! You go girl, God bless you!!!!!

Thank you Jesus for enduring the Cross that we may live.

I love watching Lacey sing. Her love for Jesus is so amazing. I do worry that she is going to pop with all that joy inside.

awww she's so beautiful, I know that god is looking down on her and taking well care of her. Stay beautiful Lacey!

It's so beautiful to see someone who had such a bad childhood to be pouring her heart out into the entity that saved her

Bless you Lacey. This song will be in my head when I go into Church tomorrow morning. Palm Sunday! Jesus is Lord. He rides in majesty straight into this heart of sin and rebellion. I trust Jesus and thank Him for Lacey and all those other wonderful, saved and blessed people who have become a blessing to me. RevDev xxx

I wonder if she sees these comments. I hope she knows she’s helping so many people 🥹❤ I just recently turned to god and I’m so happy. Also led me back to her music. I grew up listening to flyleaf in middle school and now 14 years later I come across her music, I didn’t even know her music was about god until now ❤❤❤

As a music lover, I've heard many beautiful songs. I think this is the most beautiful song I've ever heard.

Love this song , i could listen to it all day. Praise be to our Lord and Savoir Jesus Christ , God bless.

2023 wciąż porusza moje serce ta piosenka❤

Thanks Lacey. You just made a grown man cry

YES! THANK YOU JESUS! THANK YOU! praise you oh God for the Mercy Tree.

I could worship God all day every day with this song playing in the background!

BEAUTIFUL SONG!! Nothing more beautiful, then an atheist finding Christ our Lord! I loved her when she was in FlyLeaf, and I now love her even more! Great is He our King of Kings!

Dang her voice on that BRIDGE. I used to love listening to Lacey scream...now so much more so!

This is so powerful. What God does in peoples lives! I'm a 15 year old guy that started a RU-vid and Instagram Ministry also, and God took it and blessed it! God is amazing!

How can someone be so beautiful inside and out? Her voice calms me down and stops my panic attacks.

10 years later HE'S ALIVE, JESUS HAS RISEN , god bless Lacey for sharing her talent

Probably my favorite song ever

When you are watching this video, take notice to the guy who is sitting in the chair playing the guitar. (That is Lacey's Husband) Look at the way he looks at her. With such LOVE and such admiration. It is so beautiful to see two people who not only love each other so much (& their two beautiful kids), but also love Jesus so much!!

Unbelievable how talented Lacey sturm is.

This song is honestly the most beautiful song I have ever heard. She has an incredible voice and her faith makes you believe every word. This is my new favorite song and I will share it to spread the word of Christ. After all music connects us with its beauty.

Dear Lacy and family Please continue to give us more of your wonderful Voice , please sing more Christian Song , I feel that it come so deep from you heart that all heaven must be singing with you . May God bless you and your family to continue, I would love to hear more. 👍🏻✝️🤗😊🙏🇨🇦

Every aspect of this song was anointed by God, I don't even know that lady, but holy ghost takes me head to toe listening to this.

What they made for evil, God made for good so that we may have victory in Jesus! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Great to hear this most powerful song again xx

I can feel Jesus through this music. It's invigorating.

HE'S ALIVE, JESUS HAS RISEN , god bless Lacey for sharing her talent

OMG why is this the fist time i’m hearing this song from her. Beautiful ❤️❤️

It's Very Touching Song. GOD is GOOD all The TIME !! Thank You...

I'm praying for everyone who needs a Miracle. Only God can do the impossible, He can make a way when there seems to be no way. I pray God touches your health, your home, your family, your faith, and your finances. Amen!

God speaks with the heart. God will fill your heart with abundant peace.

Great song lyrics is very inspirational my prayings from Egypt 🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬

Praise our Lord!! Let us bow down before Him!

i love this song it's so amazing JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY and seeing so many blinded breaks my heart that they deny the truth.....

A voice so beautiful has to be a gift from God to sing his praises. Those who slander and accuse are hanging Christ all over again... and he will gladly bear the pain .... I already had a deep faith in God, but listening to Lacey opened a whole new window to heaven with a vision of great love and peace coming thru. God Bless you Lacey Sturm.... through your testimony many souls will come to him, he knew what he was doing when he saved your life.

9 days sober from alcohol thanks to the mercy of Jesus Christ alone. HALLELUJAH !!

A beautiful song, beautifully sung. I do not perceive her as doing this to bring glory to herself, rather her whole effort is to bring glory to God and praise to our Lord Jesus Christ. As a man of Scottish ancestry, I would love to hear maybe two or three bagpipers playing the Great Highland Bagpipes as part of the accompanyment to Mrs. Sturm's singing...the whole song has a strong celtic feel to it...the GHB's would enhance that tremendously - just as they lend a powerful voice to Amazing Grace. .

I watched Billy Graham's "Hope" broadcast tonight. What a wonderful testimony you have, Lacey. When I heard this song, I raced here to find it. Beautiful, moving song and lyrics. Such passion in your voice,...chills from head to toe every time I listen to it ! I pray that everyone who watched the show that doesn't know Jesus, will open their hearts to the One and Only, merciful Savior. ♥

North Carolina here love this young Lady's voice listened to her before she started singing christian love her story thank you young lady

I've been a fan of Lacey for years even when I was an angry atheist. Now I've come back to Christ after decades away and find myself reading and listening to Billy Graham. What a wonderful surprise to find this song on this channel.

I’m totally convinced Lacey is the perfect embodiment of a person who really believes. She is a Believer, with capital B. Everyone says “I believe in God”, but they are really far from being believers. Personally, I don’t believe in God, but through her words I can understand the way she feels.

I gasp in tears when listening to this at both the brokenness from my sins, and what Jesus has done and will do for those of us that have called on His holy name. Praise God 🙏 Praise Jesus. Forgive us Lord.

This video might be old but the message never gets old.

This is the most powerful Christian song I've ever heard Christian or otherwise! I cannot listen to it without tearing up and crying my eyes out. I love him so much I love Him and the love that I feel for Him comes from Him🌹

Lacy is the definition of God's servant you can literally watch be saved from a troubled child to a holy guide yet see that she is the same person. What a gift she is to the world thank God for her and those who speak to the most lost of us

So beautiful. Amen!

She is definitely not like other Christian singers, you can tell she sings to praise Him using the talents He gave her, not for the fame or money. (Im not saying other singers don't do it to praise Him, but you can tell she was hit hard by His love❤)

Jesus didn't come to make bad people good but dead people live .thank you Jesus for your mercy and grace

This song is vastly underrated...

Wow! That may be the most beautiful presentation of the gospel I've ever heard. Thank you Lacey for your heart and love for our Savior.

If this song doesn't give you goosebumps idk what will?!😱

Bless this channel Lord Jesus and bless everyone who stops by to listen to this beautiful music Amen.🎼🎷🎹🎵🎶⛪✝️💯👍🙏

The message of Christ is still all we need. All power and glory belong to Him.May this song bless all that hear. Amen

You can so tell she sings this from her heart, believing every word that flows across each note. God bless you lacey.

Death has died, love has won Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Jesus Christ has overcome He has risen from the dead Amen 💙

Can't stop replaying this perfect song for Easter morning! Jesus loves us and wants to forgive us.He wants a relationship with his children. All we have to do is reach out to him and thank Him for The Mercy Tree...

Possibly the most beautiful song ever. Amen.

so much settled at that mercy tree. 1) we have no righteousness. 2) proof of his relentless love for us, how completely dear and precious we are. Let's not insult him anymore by trying to do everything right and then condemning ourselves when we can't and then running away in shame. I'm not talking to those who are looking for lisence to rebel but to true bros and sis's. Bury ourselves in the Word, commune in prayer, familiarize ourselves in the Truth. Don't stare into the dark but walk in the Light!

No matter what you believe, you cannot deny the impact Jesus has had on this woman. Love abounds! Carry on, Lacey! Keep telling the world your story.

This song got me through when my father passed away March 3, 2016. Love it. I was in nursing school doing my clinical rotation when I got a call from my mother to call my dad who was 8 hours away in Nashville, Tennessee I called him and talked to him while he was dying, thank God I got to talk to him one last time.

Why is this song so emotional for me can barely listen without bawling

I'm a converted Catholic with an adult lifetime of listening to the heaviest metal and hardest rock (+ Flyleaf!) but this just leaves me moved beyond words. Lacey Sturm, you are indeed blessed by the Holy Spirit. I love it to pieces.
