God Sees Your Tears -Psalm 56:8a
In our lives so much happening
many troubles and heart breaks abound
makes one ask how does one cope
for these things keep us aground
But we have a father in heaven
who looks down on his own offspring
sees all their troubles that abound
in his heart, there's a tender string
His ear is always open to our cries
watching and waiting for our voice
for his love abounds to us alone
as his elected children are his choice
This father doesn't mind our tears
he's quite happy when he sees them
for then we show our true selves
as the woman touched his garment hem
This God collects all our tears
in his bottle there will he keep
such his merciful care for each one
from his heart, his love is so deep
(You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle.')
Psalm 56:8a (ESV)
