He weeps for the addict living on the road Her broken mind, her tortured soul He weeps for the little lad abused In a family of sorrow, a family confused He weeps for the elderly that does not repent Of a life lived in chaos and many sins spent He weeps for you and He weeps for me Because God's plan; we choose not to see
Mommy why does Jesus weep?
He weeps for the woman with an unborn child Given to abortion, conceived in the wild He weeps for the one drowning his sorrows in beer Broken and beaten believing no one cares He weeps for the disciples, not listened to The deaf ears and all the hardened hearts too He weeps for you and He weeps for me Captives of sin but so easily set free
Lord, why does Jesus weep?
He weeps for a world lost and alone For all the world's sinners who will never go home He weeps for the soldiers sent out there to die The ones never given a chance to even ask why He weeps for governments full of corruption and greed They think that power and money are all they'll need He weeps for you, my child, he weeps for you He weeps in happiness for your one heart true.
