How Many Tears
One day will come
When I pass away
When I go home
To face Him
He waits with love
Arms open wide
I know I cannot
Look Him in the eye
How many times
Did I fail Him
How many times
Did I knowingly sin
People I passed
Not stopping to help
Lies that I told
Truth I did not
So many things
I should have done
So many things I did
That I shouldn’t have
I know I will fall
Down at His feet
I know will cry
I have failed Him
How many tears
For one drop of blood
How many sobs
For His groans
How long will I cry
How long will it take
Someone once asked
Is there a hell
A place that you go
If you have been bad
Yes there is a hell
It there waits for me
It will be when
I cry on His feet
