Dave Matthews - Mercy Lyrics






Don’t give up, I know you can see
All the world and the mess that we’re making
Can’t give up and hope God will intercede
Come on back, imagine that we could get it together
Stand up for what we need to be
‘Cause crime won’t save or feed a hungry child
Can’t lay down and wait for a miracle to change things
So lift up your eyes, lift up your heart
Singing, mercy will we overcome this
Oh, one by one, could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
And I’ll try to give you what you need
Me and you, and you, and you just wanna be free
But you see, all the world is just as we’ve made it
And until we got a new world I’ve got to say
That love is not a whisper or a weakness
No, love is strong, so we got to get together
Yeah, gotta get, gotta get, gotta get
‘Til there is no reason to fight
Mercy, will we overcome this
Oh, one by one, could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
And I’ll try to give you what you need
Mercy, will we overcome this
Have we come too far to turn it around
Ask too much to be a little bit stronger
But I wanna give you what you need
Mercy, what will become of us
Oh, one by one, could we turn it around
Maybe carry on just a little bit longer
And I’ll try to give you what you need

  8. C.... S....

    so Im from Indiana dave matthews is huge here. They reference it on that parks and recreation show as well. is this a real thing? or am i over analyzing things? Yes i've been to his shows at verizon. fantastic.

  9. c.... p....

    good tune

  10. D.... G....

    I love this song! Is beautiful! 💚💚💚

  11. L.... ....

    Beautiful

  12. S.... M....

    The quality of mercy is not strain'd,
    It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
    Upon the place beneath: it is twice blest;
    It blesseth him that gives and him that takes:
    'Tis mightiest in the mightiest: it becomes
    The throned monarch better than his crown;
    His sceptre shows the force of temporal power,
    The attribute to awe and majesty,
    Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings;
    But mercy is above this sceptred sway;
    It is enthroned in the hearts of kings,
    It is an attribute to God himself;
    And earthly power doth then show likest God's
    When mercy seasons justice.

  13. Q.... J....

    So true are the lyrics in this day and age

  14. m.... u....

    Dmb come to Bangalore pls

  15. M.... M....

    Uplifting music 🎶

  16. B.... B....

    are we singing 'MERCY'?

  17. A.... K....

    I needed this in my life right, thanks youtube recommended. Just going through some kind of messed up crisis.

  18. t.... ....

    for anyone interested, my question about 'christians" reincarnating i think ,was answered by a zoroastrian translation in the nag hamadi yesterday...per that text those who achive 'salvation' via the 'triple male child' entity escape automatic/mated reincarnation. however, there's non automatic reincarnation too-there's that new testament passage where jesus says to one of the disciples who's complaining about favoritism "and what is it to you if he (john-not the baptist, but 'bogomil") is asked to return", and of course the buddhist teaching about bodisattvas voluntarily coming back, although they're free to just go on to the first level of nirvana...

  19. R.... B....

    I think with everything going on here in America(and the world).... this song could do the world some good. Goosebump worthy....

  20. A.... K....

    Love is everything a powerful invisible force... Can over come most things with love

  21. M.... ....

    I just love the instrumental conclusion from 3:00 and onwards. One of my favorite DMB songs.

  22. a.... m....

    "..could we turn it around"? Not with men in charge.

  23. D.... H....

    Mercy is indeed (and always has been) a leap into the unknown future. Courage comes from loving hearts that spill over with sacred energy, 'sacred' because it seems undefinable, unjustifiable, without guarantees: that for me is how to articulate 'faith in God' ... However you interpret 'God'...it is 'godsent' love alone that offers supreme mysterious power, and sad/happy love that activates merciful compassion.

    D.... H....

    +Desi Halse Thanks Desi for your meaningful message so well expressed...blessings from Africa, Mwana

    D.... H....

    May that power sweep you off your feet and place you where you belong and are needed

  24. M.... P....

    This is one of my favorite songs of all. It's beautiful and thank you for such a positive message. 💚

  25. a.... ....

    "Mercy" is the most beautiful word.

  26. B.... H....

    And until we got a new world I’ve got to say
    That love is not a whisper or a weakness
    No, love is strong.

  29. D.... A....

    Has anybody had the opportunity to see this song live and high? I would recommend it :)

    D.... A....

    @Dan Aylestock Yes sir! Last Saturday in Atlanta. It was incredible!

    D.... A....

    this song will always remind me of the gorge... any year i have attended... the peace and calm in this song and a sense of everyone coming together for a bigger purpose. sends chills down my spind and i see it clear as day... the sun setting over those red hills plastered with happy windmills.. the cold temperatures move in with the wind as i look around and see thousands of people that could die happy in the exact moment. nothing like it that i have ever experienced otherwise.

  30. J.... ....

    This song is a bit weird, I think..

    J.... ....

    Listen to it high ;)

  31. S.... A....

  52. e.... ....

  53. P.... R....

    You're right. It wasn't really good - it was really great.

  54. B.... W....

    Dave Matthews is a musical genius with a gift, which he shares, and I, for one, am thankful.

  55. m.... ....

    the 90's really wasn't a good decade for rock

  61. E.... B....

    Let iPads watch!

  62. C.... M....

    *Insert age and stereotypical comment about how much music sucks now*

    I'm just trying to hear some DMB.

  63. M.... R....

    Same here. I'm also 17 and music today has gone down hill! I enjoy 90s music the most. those were good times. It's not easy finding good music nowadays :(

  64. S.... ....

    #umad? #DramaAlert

  65. R.... ....

    Don't Give Up.

    I know you can see... ALL THE WORLD AND THE MESS THAT WE'RE MAKING
    Can't give up
    And hope God will intercede
    Come on back
    Imagine that we could get it together
    Stand up for what we need to be
    Cause crying won't save or feed a hungry child
    Can't lay down and hope FOR a miracle to change things
    So lift up your eyes
    Lift up your heart

    singing #MERCYwhatWillBecomeOfUs?!?!

    1 by one...Could we turn it around?

  66. S.... ....

    Wow...did they really name this song Mercy just to scab off Kanye? Cmon bruh xD

  67. S.... G....

    I went to the concert in charlottesville virginia friday and saturday. Friday was way more mellow because of the shooting but Dave talked about the shooting and then played this song. it fit so well. i love him and this band so much. I'm 17 and i'd like to appologize for what has happened to music now. partially my generation and the one after me suck. it makes me sad. this is the good stuff.

  68. R.... B....

    lamborghini Mercy. Yo chick she so thirsty Im in that 2 seat Lambo with yo girl she tryna jerk me =)

  69. P.... ....

    Dave, Carter, Stefan, somebody. If anyone from the DMB crew goes through these comments, I have to implore you, please donate a rendition of this song in some capacity for the residents of Sandy Hook. They, and by extansion the rest of us in their extended American family need a bit of mercy and love to help start the healing...

  70. J.... F....

    i dedicate this song to the people of Connecticut... :(

  71. c.... a....

    Sincere, honest for world peace, WE can turn this around,

    Stand up for what we need to be

    only 705327 views? sad.. nowadays a lot of people don't give a fuck to real music

  77. L.... ....

    Gods mercy is the same as HIS benediction & punishment, they both help a devoted soul know its spiritual constitution. Then the yogi has a lesser and lesser need for duality, only Oneness. Now he can mature & develop, expressing new forms of existential healing & qualities, you can see it in their eyes, and on their skin as it radiates subtle frequencies of light. The best part of healing is increasing the level of awareness, transcending an intact ability to discriminate, pleasure & pain.

  78. D.... c....

    Great song ♥

  79. a.... ....

    I love this song.True Mercy is to refrain from punishing (inflicting harm in anyway) on those who do not know or understand how to serve the highest good of all.Mercy is to show understanding. to show your true self in accordance with the highest good of all.Mercy is to help those in need from harming themselves or others. Mercy is to help those that have harmed or brought fear to others make amends mentally,physically,emotionally,or spiritually. mercy shows the way to eliminate fear and hate.

  80. L.... d....

    This new song is so good & listen to the lyrics. I Also saw them @ Jimmy Kimmel Live in person last month they was awesome

  81. A.... M....

    For a band that wants to spread love and happiness you sure have lost it somewhere...why the negative attitude...to each thier own...can't we ALL just leave it at that and not bash each others opionion. They are and always have been amazing, dont ruin what they worked so hard to creat by bashin each other...JUST SAYING.

  82. F.... ....

    Life is beautiful.

  83. P.... ....

    What a... bad song.

  84. h.... ....

    Dude Dave would not approve of you being so inflammatory. It's chill if this kid doesn't like Dave. I love Dave. Dave's the man. People like the Biebs, even though I don't. But I really love Dave Matthews. I don't really get how someone wouldn't, but that's alright. Dave just wants to spread love.

  85. j.... ....

    No matter what album, I can always get stoned and listen to some Dave

    j.... ....

    jdeezey69 yesssss

  86. L.... H....

    Always been a great band. His voice is perfect. :)

  87. A.... R....

    So prophetic. Typical Dave ;)

  88. S.... ....

    Well Dave! You've done it again! I knew you were for real the first time I heard you. The people that you've managed to meet and gather to create such incredibleness (Now a word), surrealism, explosiveness of energy and emotion! The people I've turned on to the Dave Matthews phenomena has gone on to become such massive DMB fans and either became band travelers, started their own DMB cover band or just plain thank me for the introduction.
    You guys create imagination and inspiration in my life. TY

  89. c.... m....

    I love this song!

  90. T.... O....

    This is his "Let It Be"

  91. E.... L....

    This song always hits me in the heart.

  92. L.... ....

    Very nice girl, hope her pussy hole closes forever!

  93. F.... d....

    Finalmente. Commenti a un primo ascolto? Più raffinato, meno ruggente, molto studiato. E bravi Dave & Co.

  94. y.... t....

    Dave's music makes me feel alive AND at home.
