Jesus Wept

**Title: “Let the Tears Fall”**

**Verse 1**

They told me not to cry, to hold the river still

Hide the storm inside my heart and bend it to their will

But the soul was never meant to live behind a wall

Sometimes the strongest voice is when the teardrops fall

Every silent sorrow builds a deeper sight

Every hidden feeling learns to face the light

When the heart is open nothing stands disguised

Truth appears more clearly through awakened eyes

**Pre-Chorus**

There’s a fire in the spirit waiting to arise

When the tears unlock the strength we keep inside

**Chorus**

Let the tears fall, let the river run

Strength is born where broken hearts are won

In the trembling soul a light can rise

And the weakest cry becomes the wise

Let the tears fall, do not turn away

Even Christ once wept upon the way

Through the sorrow love became the call

And the strongest hearts are those who fall

**Verse 2**

There’s a moment when the mind begins to see

Faster than the world could ever seem to be

Like a hidden trigger waking in the soul

When the truth we buried finally takes control

Every trembling feeling sharpens how we stand

Turning fragile hearts into a steady hand

When the storm arrives and courage must be shown

Those who learned to feel will never stand alone

**Pre-Chorus**

For the Savior walked the path we walk today

Carrying a cross no heart could turn away

**Chorus**

Let the tears fall, let the river run

Strength is born where broken hearts are won

In the trembling soul a light can rise

And the weakest cry becomes the wise

Let the tears fall, do not turn away

Even Christ once wept upon the way

Through the sorrow love became the call

And the strongest hearts are those who fall

**Bridge**

He stood beneath the shadow of the cross

Knowing all that love would have to cost

Praying for the cup to pass away

Yet choosing still the narrow road to stay

Love so vast no measure could contain

Love that walked through suffering and pain

And the tears that fell before the night

Were the tears that filled the world with light

**Final Chorus**

Let the tears fall when the leaves are stirred

When a quiet wind becomes a word

In the smallest signs the heart may call

For the soul grows stronger

Seeing heaven deeper

When the tears are allowed to fall.
