Mercy

In a world where shadows fall,
And darkness seems to cover all,
We search for light, a hope that’s true,
In the ghetto, where dreams are few.

A mother weeps, a baby cries,
In the streets where hope often dies.
A prayer for peace, a plea so raw,
We lift our hearts and cry for mercy.

Cry for mercy, cry for love,
Heaven help us from above.
In the darkness, in the pain,
Let the light of peace reign.

A young man’s lost, he’s gone astray,
In the ghetto, he finds no way.
With a heart that’s torn and eyes so cold,
His story’s one that’s often told.

Cry for mercy, cry for love,
Heaven help us from above.
In the darkness, in the pain,
Let the light of peace reign.

In a world where we can’t see,
Beyond the pain and misery.
We reach for something pure and true,
A guiding light to pull us through.

The old man sits, his hands are worn,
By a life that’s full of dreams now torn.
He prays for peace, he prays for grace,
To see the hope in every face.

Cry for mercy, cry for love,
Heaven help us from above.
In the darkness, in the pain,
Let the light of peace reign.

The children laugh, they play and sing,
Unaware of what tomorrow brings.
In their eyes, the future lies,
A world where hope will never die.

Cry for mercy, cry for love,
Heaven help us from above.
In the darkness, in the pain,
Let the light of peace reign.

So we sing this song, we raise our voice,
In a world that needs to make a choice.
To end the hate, to heal the scar,
To find the love where we are.
Cry for mercy, cry for love,
Heaven help us from above.
