lyrics
Ch-
The world Needs Mercy
The World Needs Mercy My Friend
Mercy for the children
To find a new direction
To take us back to the garden
It's not too late to get started
Ch
Mercy for the oceans
Mercy for the glaciers
Mercy for the mountains
Mercy for the rivers
Mercy for the children
Mercy for the world
Mercy for the garden
The world needs mercy now
CH
