Story behind the song
this song speaks to the heart of many in this day and age. when things go our way, do we ever think of others... The theme of this song is to show mercy to those who sometimes fall...God Bless!
Lyrics
The gift of mercy When things go our way do we think of others through the day our lives can take a drastic turn with everything gone that we did earn the applause may fade away bringing challenges for another day chorus the needs are easy to see that require the gift of mercy the needs are easy to see that require the gift of mercy take a moment to reflect on the many needs that have to be met when the homeless search for a face thats kind and when a bowl of soup for many is hard to find don't you see may friend that shame is the legacy of a fool chorus the needs are easy to see that require the gift of mercy the needs are easy to see that require the gift of mercy our days on earth are like a vapour in time and the greatest mentor who was quite divine showed mercy to all who sometimes fall who sometimes fall and when these days end how many will call you a friend with joy thats second to none when our maker, says, 'well done' when our maker says, 'well done' the needs are easy to see that require the gift of mercy the gift of mercy the gift of mercy

As I told you before Maureen, I'm glad you hear the 'calling' and as Mother Therese of Calcuta used to say'what lacks more in human kind is a warm hand to reach out" .This song we can feel the presence of Lord of Mercies, i hope this song can show the world we can move for a purpose.It doesnt matter if its a small or huge help,lets just show mercy to the need!Beautiful .I give you five stars!:)

great message overall. shame is a legacy of a fool- cool line. good music, most strong is the first line of chorus I think. arrangement is kinda Bee Gees ( early years ) imho and it's lovely. I like vocals performance too. good song !
