From the 2018 album Pretty Bird.
This song is written by Mary Gauthier, a songwriter’s songwriter here in Nashville. I found myself listening to it for my own solace, and decided that if I could learn to sing it, I’d get to live with it every night. I tried for months to sing it, had to shelve it, brought it back out, and was finally able to find a point of view that felt like my own. Bill Cooley, my longtime guitarist, came up with a wonderful
hymn-like arrangement, and when I sing it, I think of it as a prayer.

Kathy is an incredible artist. I could listen to her sing all day long. She's the best, and it's a shame she can't get played on today's radio. She's making some of the best music of her long and distinguished career. LOVE this song. Her entire "Pretty Bird" CD is just terrific.

A great rendition of this song. Mary G. is such a powerful song writer. I like the song, distant between daylight and dark. Was hoping Mattea would do it.

I seen you play this June 2019 live at the opry in Nashville. Your arrangement hits my heart hard. I’d had just lost my father two months before and life was giving my brother some good kicks. You truly deliver the emotion this song deserves. Thanks Kathy!

My father could use a little mercy now The fruits of his labor fall and rot slowly on the ground His work is almost over, it won't be long, he won't be around I love my father, he could use some mercy now My brother could use a little mercy now He's a stranger to freedom, shackled to his fear and his doubt The pain that he lives in is almost more than living will allow I love my brother, he could use some mercy now My church and my country could use a little mercy now As they sink into a poisoned pit, it's going to take forever to climb out They carry the weight of the faithful who follow them down I love my church and country, they could use some mercy now Every living thing could use a little mercy now Only the hand of grace can end the race towards another mushroom cloud And the people in power, they'll do anything to keep their crown I love life, and life itself could use some mercy now Yeah, we all could use a little mercy now I know we don't deserve it, but we need it anyhow We hang in the balance, and dangle 'tween hell and hallowed ground And every single one of us could use some mercy now Yeah every single one of us could use some mercy now

Great song and video! My wife and I have met Kathy 4 different times over the years and she is always very nice to us! My wife’s mother died of Alzheimer’s disease and she cried as she hugged Kathy the first time we met her. Thanks for the pictures and autographs Kathy!!

Kathy, thank you for adding a video to this song that you do so articulately. This speaks to the soul and the heart of the person that you are and what you believe in. Well done and by the way, I love your new CD, "Pretty Bird". "Tell Me What You Ache For" is another song that just rocks my being...WoW Still a fan, always!!!

This song has the form of a Buddhist loving-kindness prayer also used in mindfulness meditation, called Metta Bhavana. And I also find it has a lot of spiritual power for me. Very interesting!

In this time of insanity and illness, we could all use some mercy now. I think god is on vacation at the moment though.
