Analysis of Cry Tears of Joy Dedicated to James F. Bryant



These tears I cry are tears of Joy
That let my heart know that Uncle don't
have to fear no more. Fear of how his life
would be, for my father who art in heaven
says pain will no longer be. These tears of
Joy that sets me free. So cry if you must
its the way it will be, but always know I
have victory. I am with my father who paved
the way for me, way back on calvary. So
don't cry for me, because I am free in
heaven is where I will be. Free from
heartach, free from pain to live is Christ
to die is gain.
