As the Tears Fall

As the tears fall 
Im reminded of your mercy and grace
As the tears fall
My love for you grows deeper and deeper each day
For its you who has seen me through it all
When i felt my back was against the wall
I think back on how life has treated me
And its then I remember you promising you would never forsake or leave me
As the tear drops fall 
And they slowly soak in
I remember your soft gentle voice saying
 my child this is not the end
I remember your words, 
just as clear as day
Saying child take my hand, 
trust me, and ill lead the way
Ill be your friend, when your all alone
Ill be your redeemer, 
when you feel all hope is gone
Ill be your deliverer, 
when there seems no way out
Ill be your living water, 
through the desert and the drout
