Tears of Joy


























She smiles at him with loving eyes

From her womb he came there is no disguise

She is very content living day by day by faith

She realizes the harsh reality of this world there's no mistake


He looks at her with compassion in his eyes

From her womb he came there is no disguise

Born into a world that easily turns the other way

Given heavy responsibility at such a young age


They look at each other and she begins to cry

From her womb he came there is no disguise

Not tears of sadness or hurt or pain

Knowing this is the day that the Angels reign


Takes his small hand and wipes the tears from her eyes

From her womb he came there is no disguise

For the day will come when he must sacrifice

Redeeming us through her tears of joy…giving us eternal life
