Cry

Cry

O Lord, why am I such a fool?

My tears, they fall, I cry a pool.

I bow my head in plea to thee,

Then feel your arms encircle me.

Your arms hold me tight, warm embrace,

I look up, see thy gentle face.

I know you see, I know you care,

Why can’t I always feel thee there?

Am I so lost, so far from thee,

That even you can’t bear to see?

I hold my head down in my arms,

Then you reach out, thy Spirit warms.

Thy gentle voice whispers to me,

My child, I am here for thee.

I am aware of all thy needs,

Thy weak soul I will surely feed.

Stay close to me, you will be strong,

Child, never think you don’t belong.

My dear, you will always be mine,

Keep on going, you will be fine.

I love thee, my child, don’t forget.

Please change what’s wrong, and no more fret.

Do what’s right, you are always loved.

Come unto me, my child beloved.

Hold on tight, I am standing nigh,

You will be exalted on high.

I promised you I’d help you home.

My child, you are never alone.

I died for you upon the cross,

Your sins won’t leave you at a loss.

For your sins, for you I was sent,

And you know that you must repent.

Repent and live, I will be here,

Please my child, don’t you ever fear.

I love you, I will never leave.

Promise that unto me you’ll cleave.
