Every Tear

Intro: verse 1 The world just took another spin in the wrong direction Hate found a handgun, and now nobody feels safe I gotta turn off the news so my kids don’t see another tragedy I wanna let em stay innocent, at least for one more day Cause just when I think it can’t get worse, it gets worse And there are no words to say How much more can our hearts take? In this shattered place, where the shadows cover Where we speak of love, while we hurt each other My heart aches for home, right now more than ever But I’m holding on, to the hope of heaven And the promise that the day is drawing near You will wipe away every tear You will wipe away every tear verse 2 There will be no more terror, no more riots in the street And we will all be seen, beyond the color of our skin No more fighting, no more war, no more hunger left ignored No more sickness, no more pain We’re here for now but we won’t stay In this shattered place, where the shadows cover Where we speak of love, while we hurt each other My heart aches for home, right now more than ever But I’m holding on, to the hope of heaven And the promise that the day is drawing near You will wipe away every tear You will wipe away every tear Ooooh Bridge The Lord is close to the broken-hearted The Lord is close to the broken-hearted Oh Lord be close to the broken-hearted We need you now We need you now In this shattered place, where the shadows cover Where we speak of love, while we hurt each other My heart aches for home, right now more than ever But I’m holding on, to the hope of heaven And the promise that the day is drawing near When your great light will make the darkness disappear And you will wipe away every tear, every tear You will wipe away every tear Outro Lord be close to the broken-hearted Lord be close to the broken-hearted
