mercy

Mercy is the rain
When the river runs dry
Mercy is the light
In the dark of the night
Mercy is the gift
We’re given every day
Mercy from our sins
From our pain
Have mercy
Have mercy
We all bleed
And we all need
A little mercy
The mistakes we make
And the roads we take
Won’t look the same, but
We all need a little mercy
Mercy’s right there when you can’t see
All the forest for the trees
Mercy picks you up
When you hit your knees
When we just can’t believe
Have mercy
Have mercy
We all bleed
And we all need
A little mercy
The mistakes we make
And the roads we take
Won’t look the same, but
We all need a little mercy
Mercy made the laugh lines around your eyes
Mercy gives you love when you’re all alone
Mercy forgives you for being who you are
Even when you don’t
Have mercy
Have mercy
We all bleed
And we all need a little mercy
Yeah, It ain’t too hard
To let it be
Have mercy
