Mercy Never Cries
I walk this earth;
and it's a crowded mess;
Selectively imprisoned masses;
count their spoils accumulate their worth;
Now when it's all said and done;
And the bankers, the rich think they've won;
God comes...
Mercy free
freed is mercy
Mercy silent
Quiet is the voice
Of the undeserving and improvised that got away
Mercy yields
Mercy watches
Mercy graces the hope and hopeless
Mercy laughs
but mercy never, ever, never cries
Mercy doesn't Cry
And you ask, Why
God has no need for tears in the skies
Mercy waits
Mercy cares
Mercy doen't hate
Mercy bears
All the pains of humanity, while sharing all the goodness it has to bring;
Mercy yields
Mercy watches
Mercy graces the hope and hopeless
Mercy laughs
but mercy never, ever, never cries
Mercy doesn't Cry
And you ask, Why
Mercy can't die;
Mercy won't lie;
Mercy just in season and out;
and did I mention that no tears in the eyes of mercy, because mercy can't cry;
God has no need for tears in the skies;
