Silent Tears

How do you see Me,

What do you see ?

I came for you

To set you free

I weep now for your silent tears

Yes even till now I wait for you

Yet.... you do not call out My Name

You run from me

Trying to hide your shame

You say I am not here

You say I do not know

But I see your pain where ever you go

It was Me, the Lord, who brushed by you

As you hurried on your way

When you ran into that man

Yes, the religious fanatical one, today

He reached out with My Hand

Though inadequate he be

He was reaching out with My Love

But your silent tears blinded you

.... and you didnt see it was really Me.

Oh My Beloved, My Beloved, My joy

Dont run! Please stop!

For where you are going, it will destroy

The pain I took the wrath of God

It was for your sins My Beloved Child

You cursed the One who loves you most

You swore in your silent vault

And I weep upon My Father's Throne

Forgive them, for their faults

I am the Living sacrifice you need

But My Words, will you not heed ?

A cup of water your child offered up

Yet in anguish you tossed a stone

And still I wait... I wait for you

Upon My Father's Throne

Cotton in your ears

Glasses to hide the light

Running to and fro

You strive not to spill your silent tears

Running with all your might

Oh how I weep for your empty heart

I yearn to hold you near

Stop running My Beloved

Come to Me

Fall down on your knees

Cling to Me, I'll keep you safe

And banish those silent tears

You know that neurotic mess ?

The girl who lives just down the street ?

She offered Me grapes fresh from her vine

Her steady heart

Her only joy - knowing she was Mine

The young girl who stumbled upon her words

Its in her prayers - she prays for you

She bears your silent tears

Bringing them to His Throne of Grace

Oh Help me, Help me Lord

I am blind I cannot see

But the prayers offered for your soul

Her eyesight cleared and now she see's through Me

Oh how I weep for your rigid heart

Closed up hard shut tight

The emptiness you feel

Echoes in the silence of the night

So come to Me, come to Me

My Father loves you so

Let Me take your pain

Look into My Eyes

And in Repentance there is no shame

I have taken it upon My Cross

That you may bear My Name

Freedom and Eternal Life

My Heart is yours to gain

In Heaven, there is no shame.....

Please..... let Me dry those silent tears

And I will come to you

If you just cry out My Name.
