Such Tears

Oh they're all so oblivious to it all unaware of the depths of evil
Diligent in making mankind fall as they never did have the will
Each day walking around unprotected not even a single prayer
The more easily to be selected when His Mercy just isn't there

Those who know His Voice "He has dashed in pieces the enemy"
And so in Him we rejoice in only reaching out for you to be free
"For snares are round about thee, and sudden fear trouble thee"
Yet all this you can not see but the Lord Himself did in so decree

Wickedness you can't imagine and evil you can not even dream
Swimming about this pool of sin things aren't what things seem
In with death's own bitter sting the woeful feelings of utter lose
Legions of His Angel will sing of His Glory over sin at the Cross

You couldn't known of any of this for you have never inquired
Life has been such bliss and that never seemed to be required
But as a 1,000 years is a day and one day is a thousand years
In missing out upon His Way you will be shedding such tears
