And Jesus Wept
I prayed to my Father today
I asked him to forgive...
thats all I could say.
A lump formed in my throat
and the words kept from coming.
Oh how I wanted to turn
and to take off running.
But then I remembered
what He has done for me,
He laid down his life
just to set me free.
I was ashamed and started to cry.
He loved me so much, He even died.
The thunder came, it started to rain
and Jesus Wept.
I know why the tears flow from His eyes...
I know why He continues to cry.
He looks at me so selfish and cold
still holds out His arms and wants to enfold.
He knows why I am afraid and so weak
lost in my sorrow, the words so hard to speak.
But I too must forgive and learn how to smile,
forgive all those hurts once had as a child.
Dear Lord I am trying, and I try everyday, so
please help me my Father, give me the words to say.
"I forgive you" these things you have done to me,
for if I leave this inside I will cease to be.
I must face to my ghosts and now begin to heal,
if I don't do it now I will no longer feel.
The thunder came, it started to rain
and Jesus Wept.
I know why the tears flow from His eyes...
I know why He continues to cry.
Has human life gotten so out of hand
that someone can do these things to their fellow man.
They take someone so small, so meek...
a young child so innocent too afraid and too weak.
They abuse and they threaten
they confuse and they shame.
Has life got no meaning
that someone can hurt and so mame?
Not just one time these things have they done,
but over and over they abused and had fun.
I cry not only for this child,
but for all the lost souls who are hurt and defiled.
