Tears... by Leona I. Miller

Tears of affliction may dim the eyes,

While the winds of temptations blow;

Seas of discouragement send sorrows,

Be patient and wait for blessings to flow.



Each new day gives a new beginning,

Tears may flow, but God understands;

Speak with Him in humble prayer,

He will help you...trust His Plan.



Tears are seen and heard by our God,

Jesus wept too, when Lazarus had died;

He knows our thoughts before we think them,

He knows each sorrow when we have cried.



The heart may feel as if to be breaking,

There's tenderness, weakness and pain;

In times like these we must remember,

God did not promise every day without rain.



There are clouds in life that will come,

God has faithfully promised to be with us;

We must trust Him, always, for all things,

It's too easy to complain, fret and fuss.



Turn everything over to our Heavenly Father,

Watch as He turns the problems around;

This world is not a permanet dwelling place,

He lifts the troubled soul to Higher ground.



Pray and trust Him today, dear friend,

You will be so thankful you did;

Things will not always be as now,

Let burdens and tears with Him be hid.
