~ Tears In Heaven ~
As I looked into His face,
There I saw His tears.
One for all my heartaches,
One for all my fears.
One for all the doubts
That had come my way.
One for uncertainties
Of every single day.
When I saw the sadness
That caused His heart such grief,
I was filled with shame
For my weak belief.
And then behind His tear drops
I saw such love for me,
That He would send His only Son
To die on Calvary.
It was then that I relinquished
All my willful pride.
For I knew that my Father
Would be ever by my side.
Throughout distress and sorrow
Throughout short comings of my own,
I know that He will lead me
To stand beside His throne.
And though I will know sadness
And though I will feel pain,
I'll remember His tears in heaven
And I will not complain!
