[00:00.00]Mercy Now (Album Version) - Mary Gauthier
[00:14.26]My father could use a little mercy now
[00:25.37]The fruits of his labor
[00:29.22]Fall and rot slowly on the ground
[00:38.68]His work is almost over
[00:41.37]It won't be long and he won't be around
[00:50.60]I love my father
[00:54.88]And he could use some mercy now
[01:04.86]My brother could use a little mercy now
[01:15.43]He's a stranger to freedom
[01:19.05]He's shackled to his fears and doubts
[01:29.11]The pain that he lives in is
[01:31.81]Almost more than living will allow
[01:40.93]I love my brother
[01:45.60]And he could use some mercy now
[01:54.44]My church and my country
[01:58.45]Could use a little mercy now
[02:06.01]As they sink into a poisoned pit
[02:10.24]That's going to take forever to climb out
[02:19.69]They carry the weight of the faithful
[02:24.73]Who follow them down
[02:31.75]I love my church and country
[02:36.17]And they could use some mercy now
[02:45.10]Every living thing could use a little mercy now
[02:57.76]Only the hand of grace can end the race
[03:04.80]Towards another mushroom cloud
[03:13.47]People in power well
[03:17.01]They'll do anything to keep their crown
[03:26.24]I love life and life itself
[03:28.79]Could use some mercy now
[04:29.84]Yeah we all could use a little mercy now
[04:41.18]I know we don't deserve it
[04:45.82]But we need it anyhow
[04:54.48]We hang in the balance
[04:57.43]Dangle 'tween hell and hallowed ground
[05:07.29]Every single one of us could use some mercy now
[05:20.10]Every single one of us could use some mercy now
[05:32.54]Every single one of us could use some mercy now
