Mercy
Finding Redemption: A Soul's Cry for Mercy and Salvation
Lyrics
I can't seem to find the words to say the things I want to
I'm struggling to express what I want to say.
Say to you, I must be burnin' out.
I feel exhausted or worn out.
One night, a long, long time ago,
Referencing a past event, setting the stage.
My mother told me I should go to you,
Advice received from a maternal figure to open up.
With all my thoughts and dreams.
To share my innermost thoughts and aspirations.
Please, please tell me,
A request for information or guidance.
What you gonna do, when every princess comes to you singin'?
Asking about reactions when approached romantically.
Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul,
A plea for divine compassion or forgiveness.
Please have mercy, salvation for my soul.
Requesting salvation or redemption for the soul.
It's just that I can't justify
Difficulty in justifying certain actions.
How you can let them do the things they do.
Questioning how certain actions are permitted.
Well, I'd let them have it good.
Indicating a willingness to allow something favorable.
They laugh and totally forget,
Observing a disregard for the Creator's role.
That all creation is because of you,
Recognizing the origin of creation.
How do you do such things?
Wondering about the divine abilities.
Please, please tell me,
Reiterating the request for information or guidance.
What you gonna do when all the losers cling to you, singin'?
Asking about reactions to those in distress.
Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul,
A plea for divine compassion or forgiveness (repeated).
Please have mercy, salvation and some mercy, mercy, mercy
Requesting salvation and repeated pleas for mercy.
Mercy on my soul.
A plea for mercy on the soul.
Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul,
Repetition of the plea for divine mercy.
Please have mercy, salvation for my soul.
Continuation of seeking salvation.
Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul,
Further repetition of pleading for mercy.
Please have mercy, salvation and some mercy, mercy, mercy,
Continued request for salvation and mercy (repeated).
Mercy on my soul.
A plea for mercy on the soul (repeated).
