"Mercy Now" (Mary Gauthier cover)

My friend Jackie invited me to consider learning this one. I hadn't heard the song before and gave it a google. Pretty much from the first listen I've been been listening to it on repeat. I don't pretend to know much about anything, but one thing I know to be true is this: every single person you meet has got "a thing" -- something they are working on, a challenge they are facing, some private battle that you know nothing about. It's so important to be kind. The lyrics to this one ring true: every single one of us could use a little mercy now. I'm sending this one out to my friend Jackie with love and thanks for turning me on to such a wonderful song, and to any of you out there who might need a little mercy today. If you need to hear it, here's a little nugget for you: as my grandfather Big Red used to say, "Better days ahead". #MaryGauthiercover #MercyNow
