Greetings and Blessings to everyone,
I have to enter an original song for a local gospel competition coming up and I just wanted to get some opinions of my first submission. I'm just trying new things as I get older. Anyway, thanks for reading and God Bless.
These Tears of Mine.....
(Verse 1)
There were times
When the rent seemed a mile away
I didn't know how
All these bills, these bills
would ever get paid
I had mouths to feed
They needed me
so I never gave up
I was losing my mind
all the time
But I held it inside
And at the end of each night
I would let it out
and cry all the time
(Chorus)
These tears of mine
Got me through
To do the things
I had to do
Dear God I know
You understand
I raise my hand
and call out your name
These tears of mine
mean more to me
they are so much more
than what you see
So if you see me cry
Dont you pity me
I'm just giving the lord
my testimony
(Verse 2)
There were times
My heavy burdens
were a cross to bear
I didnt think anyone knew
or that anyone cared
but as I cried and prayed
and prayed and cried
I no longer felt the need
to ask God why
I began to understand
I began to see
What plan God had for me
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
So if you're in need
of a breakthrough
dont be afraid to cry
Thats just water to wash your soul
and when it's time
to let it all go
just call out the name of "Jesus!"
and let him take control
(Last Chorus)
These tears of mine
Got me through
To do the things
I had to do
But God made a way
Out of no way
And he covered me
With his majesty
what he did for me
he can do for you
Theres nothing in this world
that he can't do
Ohh Cry my brother, Cry my sister
Hear the cries of the children
Your tears, my tears....
