~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So many tears – throughout the years
Tears of doubt when I hoped to find out
That love would win – against my sin
Tears of yearning in my heart, gently burning
Filling me with an ache – but I didn’t break
Tears of compassion who’re never out of fashion
Though understanding left my soul withstanding
So many tears who could quiet my fears
Tears of grace wrapped in love’s embrace
Reminding me that hope can surely cope
Tears of joy who left me feeling like a toy
Putty in the hands of this Savior’s plans
Tears of pain who wept like the rain
Revealing the glow of my heart’s flow
So many tears this life always shares
Tears of praise for the One who will amaze
Abiding in the soul who God made whole
Tears of wonder, louder than the thunder
Living in the heart the mind will never outsmart
Tears of light who teach the spirit to fight
Battling the shadows with faith in the One who arose
Tears aren’t always wrong, at times they’re like a song
Freeing the soul to believe in the love who’ll never deceive
Offering God recompense for our worst offense
Giving Jesus all our praise because He always stays…
Saving those who believe He is the One to whom we cleave
With all our hearts and souls, His love always consoles
He’ll never leave us to endure – our redemption He can secure!
