Please Hear my Tears

I know your heart feels heavy, like the sky’s about to break,
You’ve done your best to stand, but there’s only so much you can take.
So let’s go to our Father, tell Him all that’s going on,
He hears your every whisper, even when your strength is gone. 

You’ve been praying in the nighttime, wiping tears before the dawn,
Wondering if Jehovah sees the load you’re leaning on.
But He guards your heart and mind when you kneel and humbly pray,
With a peace that’s like a river that won’t ever wash away. 

So don’t be anxious over anything, let’s tell it all in prayer,
With thanksgiving in our voices, we’ll leave every worry there. 
Then the peace of God will guard you when the night feels cold and long,
By means of Christ Jesus, He will hold your heart so strong.

So when your fears get louder than the faith you used to feel,
And the road looks long and empty and the hurt is all too real,
Just remember you’re not walking down this dusty trail alone,
Jehovah’s gonna hold you till you stand in peace at home. 

Hannah poured her heart out, she could barely even speak,
But Jehovah saw each teardrop rolling down her gentle cheek. 
She stood up from her praying with a calmer, brighter mind,
’Cause she left her pain with Someone who is loving, strong, and kind. 

So don’t be anxious over anything, let’s tell it all in prayer,
With thanksgiving in our voices, we’ll leave every worry there. 
Then the peace of God will guard you when the night feels cold and long,
By means of Christ Jesus, He will hold your heart so strong.

David felt surrounded by regret and by his foes,
But he called on his Protector, and his confidence arose. 
“Throw your burden on Jehovah, He will never let you fall,”
That same God who heard his crying hears your quiet, trembling call. 

Give all your worries to the One who holds you near,
Every doubt, each silent sorrow, every whispered fear.
He will never leave you, nor let your hope depart,
For His love will calm your spirit and bring peace to your heart.

So we’ll keep on drawing nearer, to Jehovah and His Son,
Till the stress and pain are over and the healing work is done. 
I’ll be right here praying with you, through the laughter and the tears,
Till His kingdom brings the future where He wipes away our fears.

Nothing high and nothing low, no tomorrow, no today,
Can tear you from Jehovah’s love or take His care away. 
We are “more than conquerors” when we trust the One above,
And He’s wrapping you in mercy, in unbreakable, warm love.

So don’t be anxious over anything, let’s tell it all in prayer,
With thanksgiving in our voices, we’ll leave every worry there. 
Then the peace of God will guard you when the night feels cold and long,
By means of Christ Jesus, He will hold your heart so strong.
