CRY NO MORE

Cry no more
O tender heart
Cry no more
Tears will not
Change your fate
Cry no more

For long have I watched
Your trials and travails
The loneliness of your stand
The blistered feet
As you walked barefoot
On the scorching desert sand

I saw too
The pain in your heart
That gave you not
A moment’s peace
That wracked your body
With sobs and sighs
And soundless, pillow-muffled cries

Oh, don’t I know
Of the sleepless nights
That cast dark shadows
Under your eyes
The pills you pushed
Down your throat
To chase the ghosts away

And yes, a glimpse have I got
Of the Love that stirs your soul
A Love that makes the pain worthwhile
Puts wings on your feet
And on your lips a smile

This Love is sure to win
Dear Heart
This Love is sure to win
So cry no more
O tender heart
This Love is sure to win!
