Lullaby of Tears

Abandoned Little baby girl
Left to cry herself to sleep
Too young to know the loss
Her little heart will one day feel
Her cries to the silence
Change into sobs to herself.

O Lullaby of Tears
Please sooth the broken heart to sleep
And Jesus add a harmony of peace.
And restful hope tonight.

Scared and trembling in the closet
While his parents fight and yell
Forgotten in chaos
He cries himself to sleep again.
His tears leave cleaner paths
Down his frowning, dirty cheeks.

O Lullaby of Tears
Please sooth the broken heart to sleep
And Jesus add a harmony
Of peace and restful hope tonight.

Left alone in the hospital
Wishing that he could just die
Looks to the left and sees
Another bed with a doting wife
Holding her husband's hand
"Try to sleep," she says.  He cries.

O Lullaby of Tears
Please sooth the broken heart to sleep
And Jesus add a harmony
Of peace and restful hope tonight.

O Lullaby of Tears
Your song is drawing near the end
The harmony of Jesus' love and peace.
Drowns out the melody.
