Tears of the Champion
Tears defy despair to showcase delight
as heart overcomes sobbing of grief’s plight
championing trust in God upon faith might.
Grateful for the answered prayer requests
weeping soul now triumphs over angst pests
beseeching the Lord’s strength to face more tests.
Since crying releases tension-torment
repentant conscience airs praise sentiment
to aid needy midst their predicament.
Victorious against lamentation fears
hopeful spirit presses on with blest cheers
ascending while reaching-out those in tears.*
*Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
