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
