Mercy Lord, We have sinned listen to our plea,

Mercy Lord, we have sinned, listen to our plea.
Mercy Lord we have sinned, answer now our prayer

We have turned from the poor, let the hungry die.
We neglect the oppressed, we ignore their cry.
Now’s the time, now’s the day, turn back to your God,
Tear your hearts, cry to him.

We confess, we detest our disunity
We have lived for ourselves, failed in Charity.
Banish, Lord, from our hearts bitterness and pain
Cleanse us, Lord heal our lives with your spirit’s flame.
