Mercy

[Verse 1]
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.

[Verse 2]
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.

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

[Verse 3]
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.

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

[Bridge]
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.

[Verse 4]
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.

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

[Verse 5]
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.

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

[Outro]
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.
