Karaoké Mercy Now Mary Gauthier

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

He won't be around

I love my father

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 fear and his doubt

The pain that he lives in it's almost more than living will allow

I love my brother

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 gonna take forever to climb out

They carry the weight of the faithful who follow them down

I love my church and country

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 they'll do anything to keep their crown

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

And 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
