MercyMe's song "To Whom It May Concern" is a compassionate anthem that reaches out to anyone weighed down by shame or past mistakes. The lyrics emphasize that everyone falls and that no one is beyond redemption. Instead of judging or throwing stones, the song encourages lifting others up and offering support. It reassures listeners that their identity is not defined by their failures, and that they don't have to face their struggles alone. The repeated message "We won't go away" underscores a commitment to stand by one another, reflecting a Christ-like love and grace.

To whom it may concern when will we learn
We are all the same
Do you really think that you?re the first
To fall along the way
It may sound crazy but what if
You don?t try to run
Rather than kick our wounded
We could just lift you up
Oh oh oh
We?re not throwing stones
Hey hey hey
You are not your shame
Oh oh oh
You can?t go alone
Hey hey hey
We won?t go away
I can see it?s written on your face
It reads with every line
Wishing you could somehow just erase
Or even turn back time
Don?t let yourself buy into the lie
That you are too far gone
So let us remind you that you?re
Not what you have done
Oh oh oh
We?re not throwing stones
Hey hey hey
You are not your shame
Oh oh oh
You can?t go alone
Hey hey hey
We won?t go away
We?re not throwing stones
Hey hey hey
You are not your shame
Oh oh oh
You can?t go alone
Hey hey hey
We won?t go away
We won?t go away
We won?t go away
Breathe deep and believe that wherever you go
It don?t matter how high, don?t matter how low
It comes down to being found and
Who you know, you know, yeah
