Mercy Now
Lyrics 
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

Every living thing could use a little mercy now
Only the hand of grace can end the race towards another mushroom cloud

I know we don't deserve it but we need it anyhow
His work is almost over it won't be long, he won't be around
We hang in the balance dangle 'tween hell and hallowed ground
As they sink into a poisoned pit it's going to take forever to climb out
My brother could use a little mercy now
My church and my country could use a little mercy now
I love my church and country, they could use some mercy now
And every single one of us could use some mercy now
The fruits of his labor fall and rot slowly on the ground
He's a stranger to freedom, he's shackled to his fear and his doubt
I love life and life itself could use some mercy now
People in power, they'll do anything to keep their crown
They carry the weight of the faithful who follow them down
The pain that he lives in it's almost more than living will allow
Yeah, we all could use a little mercy now
Every single one of us could use some mercy now
Every single one of us could use some mercy now

I love my bother, he could use some mercy now
