Arms of Mercy is the sixth studio album by Christian singer - songwriter Kim Hill, released in the fall of 1998 by Star Song Records. The album was produced by Andy Piercy, who also produced Sheila Walsh's comeback album Hope, which was released the same year as this album.

Other song's include "Rain Of Your Mercy," "Hold Me Close," "To Call You Lord" and Hill's self-penned "Up to the Moon."
