“These Tears that Fall”

By Jason Kirk Bartley

These tears that fall do not mean that I am weak.

They mean I lean upon my Savior,

His will I seek.

As these tears stream down my weary face,

It shows my heart to be in the right place.

And when I seek the Savior above,

They often fall as a sign of His love.

His blessings stream down my cheeks to my chin,

to let me know I’m close to Him.

His favor falls and fills my cup,

His mercy and love there to lift me up.

And when I seek Him with my whole heart in

prayer,

a touch of Heaven meets me there.

All glory fills my heart right there.

He assures me He has answered my prayer.

His nail-scarred hands hold me,

They cause each tear,

only because He holds me near.
