Mercy
Don't give up
I know you can see
All the world and the mess that were making
Can't give up and hope God will intercede
Come on back
Imagine that we could get it together
Stand up for where we need to be
'Cause crime won't save our feet or hungry child
Can't lay down and wait for a miracle to change things
So lift up your eyes
Lift up your heart
Singing mercy, will we overcome this
Oh, one by one could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
And I try to give you what you need
Me and you and you and you
We just want to be free, yeah, yeah
But you see all the world is just as we've made it
And until we got a new world I got to say
That love is not a whisper or a weakness
No, love is strong
So we got to get together, yeah
Gotta get, gotta get, gotta get
'Til there is no reason to fight
Mercy, will we overcome this
Yeah, one by one could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
And I try to give you what you need
Oh mercy, will we overcome this
Oh, we come to far to turn it around
Oh, is it ask too much to be a little bit stronger
But I want to give you what you need
Mercy, what will become of us
Oh, one by one could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
And I try to give you what you need
I know you can see
All the world and the mess that were making
Can't give up and hope God will intercede
Come on back
Imagine that we could get it together
Stand up for where we need to be
'Cause crime won't save our feet or hungry child
Can't lay down and wait for a miracle to change things
So lift up your eyes
Lift up your heart
Singing mercy, will we overcome this
Oh, one by one could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
And I try to give you what you need
Me and you and you and you
We just want to be free, yeah, yeah
But you see all the world is just as we've made it
And until we got a new world I got to say
That love is not a whisper or a weakness
No, love is strong
So we got to get together, yeah
Gotta get, gotta get, gotta get
'Til there is no reason to fight
Mercy, will we overcome this
Yeah, one by one could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
And I try to give you what you need
Oh mercy, will we overcome this
Oh, we come to far to turn it around
Oh, is it ask too much to be a little bit stronger
But I want to give you what you need
Mercy, what will become of us
Oh, one by one could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
And I try to give you what you need
