Mercy Now |
| My father could use a little mercy now |
| The fruits of his labor |
| Fall and rot slowly on the ground |
| His work is almost over |
| It won’t be long and he won’t be around |
| I love my father, and he could use some mercy now |
| My brother could use a little mercy now |
| He’s a stranger to freedom |
| He’s shackled to his fears and doubts |
| The pain that he lives in is Almost more than living will allow |
| I love my bother, and he could use some mercy now |
| My church and my country could use a little mercy now |
| As they sink into a poisoned pit |
| That’s going to take forever to climb out |
| They carry the weight of the faithful |
| Who follow them down |
| I love my church and country, and they could use some mercy now |
| Every living thing could use a little mercy now |
| Only the hand of grace can end the race |
| Towards another mushroom cloud |
| People in power, well |
| They’ll do anything to keep their crown |
| I love life, and life itself could use some mercy now |
| Yeah, we all could use a little mercy now |
| I know we don’t deserve it But we need it anyhow |
| We hang in the balance |
| Dangle 'tween hell and hallowed ground |
| Every single one of us could use some mercy now |
| Every single one of us could use some mercy now |
| Every single one of us could use some mercy now |
