O downcast soul, torn and troubled,
are tears your only food?
You’re not alone in your anguish,
he weeps, he weeps with you,
he weeps, he weeps with you.
Though days are dark, veiled in shadow,
and nights, enfolding tombs,
beside you stands a man of sorrows
who mourns, who mourns with you;
he mourns, he mourns with you
The Son of God has tasted all your grief,
his heart has borne unbounded agony,
and he is close, he knows your suffering;
and he will see you through,
and he will see you through.
O broken soul, don’t stay silent,
lay bare your deepest wounds.
He hears your cries with compassion
and pleads, and pleads for you;
he pleads, he pleads for you
His heart can bear the force of your complaints,
he will not scorn the sorrow in your praise
he welcomes you with open arms of grace;
he waits, he waits for you,
he waits, he waits for you,
he waits, he waits for you.
