Tears of Sadness



Tears of Sadness

Rain pours down from Heaven above
GOD's tears of sadness,
shed out of love

Eat, become like god, the evil one hisst
the garden no more,  covered by mist.
Good and evil came out from darkness
the couple now saw true nakedness.

Rain pours down from Heaven above
GOD's tears of sadness, shed out of love.

Two brothers born into sin
the evil one’s reign begins.
Jealously by one to the other
by the hand with a rock, he killed his brother.
His blood cries out from the ground below
Now banished,
to the land of Nod,
the curse to follow.

Rain pours down from Heaven above
GOD's tears of sadness , shed out of love.

A woman's tears, for barren she be
by his seed, a son given to he.
Upon a pyre  a sacrifice unto thee.
His hand is stayed, by the lamb at the tree.
A great Nation will come from his seed,
Then will come The sacrifice , to set all free.

Rain pours down from Heaven above
GOD's tears of sadness, shed out of love

Forty days and forty nights
MY tears will cleans this world and make it right.
Build The Ark, preserve Creation,
from your seed, my promise to the father of a Nation.

Rain pours down from Heaven above
GOD's tears of sadness, shed out of love.

A babe in a basket, upon the Nile
This Prince of Egypt, will set Israel free.
Plagues will come, ten in all
the first born of Egypt, the Angel of Death will call.

Rain pours down from Heaven above
GOD's tears of sadness, shed out of love.

The Shepard boy, the giant he slayed
his songs of love and Praise upon his harp he played.
Murder and Adultery brought him to his knee
this King of Israel sinned against thee.

Rain pours down from Heaven above
GOD's tears of sadness, shed out of love.

A Child born of virgin birth
The Creator of all, walked upon this Earth.
Came to Redeem the lost setting all free
Gave HIS life upon that crude rugged tree.
Darkness came, lightning strikes, the Earth torn apart,
The Greatest Love, holds us all in HIS Heart.

Rain pours down from Heaven above
GOD's tears of sadness, shed out of love.
