"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 and he won't be around
I love my father, he could use some mercy now
Yeah, we all could use a little mercy now
I know we don't deserve it but we need it anyhow
We hang in the balance, dangle 'tween hell and hallowed ground
Every single one of us could use some mercy now
Every single one of us could use some mercy now
Every single one of us could use some mercy now
~ Mary Gauthier
from her song, Mercy Now
That's a very sad song....
ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not, it was playing during the first Masterpiece Mystery Movie. Since that's made in England, I was surprised to learn that it's an American Country song.
ReplyDeleteIt did touch me as I think we all could use some mercy, now...
