The Language of Tears

Tears that bare the soul
stream down and do not cease
while pain, grief, and mourning
surface at last to be seen

Time stands still as the Spirit with us meets
heart ties form as lives connect
and burdens we lay at Jesus' feet

Hearts overflowing and filled with joy
peace reigns over guilt and shame
Christ and His cross work our redeeming grace

Groan for us, Oh Spirit
make our hearts fully known
tears bare our souls
Draw us near to our GOD!
