~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

These stairs have wept a million tears walking from parking lot to hospital room Hearts travel them, to meet their worst fears Through shadows and shame, past years Blessed by the memoires who consume These stairs have wept a million tears With the music of a soul ringing in my ears There’s more love and grace than gloom Hearts travel them, to meet their worst fears Families, friends, echoing their cheers There’s more to this story than doom These stairs have wept a million tears The room grows silent when the dust clears Soon the dream’s soundless spring will bloom Hearts travel them, to meet their worst fears In seas of wonder, my gentle volunteers Remembering, He once rose from a tomb These stairs have wept a million tears Hearts travel them, to meet their worst fears
