I look around this big old world
And I see a lot of need
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
So many tears to dry
So many hearts to heal
So many mouths to feed
Somebody's got to take the time
To lend a hand
'Cause nothing's gonna change
'Til the ones who know the hand of grace
Reach out in Jesus' name
(Reach out, reach out in Jesus' name, oh, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Tell me who has seen mercy
(We have, we have, we have)
So who will show mercy
(We will, oh, yes, we will)
Tell me who has known love sweet love
(We have, we have, we have)
So who's gonna love
(We will, oh, yes, we will)
Now if we've seen the light of glory
Then we'll shine it in the dark
And if we, and if we've been forgiven
There's got to be forgiveness in our hearts
Well, if we really do believe we have eternity
Then don't you think it's true
That you and I should have the time
To help a brother through
Tell me who has seen mercy
(We have, we have, we have)
So who will show mercy
(We will, oh, yes, we will)
Tell me who has known love sweet love

Oh, oh, oh, we will
We will in the name of the Father
(Yes, we will)
We will in the name of the Son
(Sure 'nuff we will)
We will through the power of His Spirit
We will work until He comes

A company keeper when you're lonely
He will feed you when you're hungry
(Mercy!)
Tell me who has seen mercy
(We have, we have, we have)
Yeah, so who will show mercy
