Tears of Joy

I could not cry enough tears or wallow in such regret
The crowds taunting jeers as upon His way they beset
Unable to express such inner pain such utter sorrowfulness 
In realizing such gain and how much God truly does bless 

As my heart begins to weep with each passage that I hear
My mind soon begins to steep knowing His Mother Mary was so near
Watching Her Son on that Cross oh such a sight I can not face
For my whole being is at a lose in this amazing showing of God's Grace

Such a sacrifice I could not imagine oh the pain He went through
To set us free from our sin out of His Amazing love He did this for You
But with every image that I get in looking closer at His Cross
The more such emotion does overcome in the feeling of such a loss 

For who was I to ever deserve this and what could I ever even do
But that's the point that you can't miss, He did all of this for You
So there before the Cross I kneel such an unworthy servant am I
And thus the need that I so often feel to just break down and cry
