Justice and Mercy

We can't be oblivious, we are not ignorant

Blood in our hearts, blood on our hands

We're human, we reason, we're breathing

Protecting the living, and dying, surviving, we're trying!

To breathe in safety, come home safely

Mercy screams it's violent love

Justice and mercy

Justice and mercy

The depth of us created for

Justice and mercy

Justice and mercy

This is where they kiss

Life here sacrificed, someone who paid the price

Blood in our hearts, blood on our hands

We cry out, we're fighting, it's warfare, we're dying!

Believing we're winning, it's ending, we're singing!

It's already done, we've overcome

Mercy screams it's violent love

Justice and mercy

Justice and mercy

The depth of us created for

Justice and mercy

Justice and mercy

This is where they kiss

With a life on the line, the fire

That consumes or refines, a fire

To ascend or decline, to retreat or to climb

Out of sight out of mind, 'til attacked from behind

Will this fire consume or refine

Mercy screams it's violent love

Justice and mercy

Justice and mercy

The depth of us created for

Justice and mercy

Justice and mercy

This is where they kiss
