Hear My Cry

Hear My Cry 

There's a tear
That drops 
Everytime I see
That this world is 
Not what it should be 
People killing ,people loosing 
Life is somehow now confusing
So what do we do , how can we change 
The value of life is not the same 
People trying to understand why 
Lord Can you hear our cry 

Chorus 
I'm crying 
My heart aching 
Why are people life being taken 
Lord help me understand why 
Lord Hear my cry

Verse 2 
Another family weeping 
Another not sleeping 
Another losing faith 
Another closed case 
Another heartache 
Another dream deferred 
Life is gone how to hold on ?
Enough on our plate 
The Lord doesn't make mistakes 
Whether it's an illness or someone got shot 
While you are living give it all you got 
Drop to your knees 
Give the Lord glory 
You lived another day to tell your story 

Chorus 
I'm crying 
My heart aching 
Why are people life being taken 
Lord help me understand why 
Lord Hear my cry

Hear me , let your spirit near me 
Hear me , let your spirit near me 
Lord help me understand why 
Lord please hear my cry 
(Repeat 1x)

Chorus 
I'm crying 
My heart aching 
Why are people life being taken 
Lord help me understand why 
Lord Hear my cry
(Repeat until chorus fades)
