Mercy Me

Mercy Me

Mercy to the man standing on the corner.
Will work for food. will take a dollar.
Mercy to the man who has no education,
Breaking his back for nearly nothing.

Chorus:
Mercy me. O mercy me.
If I don’t do it for the least of these,
Then I don’t do it for you, Lord, Please
Mercy me. Mercy me.
Mercy for the child who doesn’t have a daddy.
Mama’s working hard trying to raise a family.
Mercy to the child growing up with fear
Of bullets and blood, sirens and tears.

Chorus

Bridge:
I want to say
Thank-you to the God I serve.
You give me mercy,
So much more than I deserve.

Mercy to the soul who knows she isn’t worthy,
Desperate for the water offered to the thirsty.
Mercy to a world hungry for Good News
Who know they can’t please you with laws and rules.
