Tears Are a Language

(Written by Gordon Jenkins in 1971; originally published by the John T. Benson Publishing Company. He wrote many other beautiful songs such as "I Should Have Been Crucified," "Redemption Draweth Nigh" and many others.)

Often you've wondered why,

Tears come into your eyes,

And burdens seem to be

Much more than you can stand.

But God is standing near,

He see your falling tears.

Tears are a language,

God understands.

When grief has left you low,

It causes tears to fall,

For things may not turn out

The way that you have planned.

But God won't forsake you now,

His promises are true.

Tears are a language,

God understands.

God sees the tears,

Of a brokenhearted soul,

He sees the tears,

And hears them when they fall.

God weeps along with men,

And takes them by the hand.

Tears are a language,

God understands.
