[Verse 1]
Often you wonder why, tears come into your eyes
And burdens seem to be much more than you can stand
But God is standing near, He sees your falling tears
Tears are a language God understands

[Chorus]
God sees the tears of a broken-hearted soul
He sees your tears and hears them when they fall
God weeps along with man and takes him by the hand
Tears are a language God understands

[Verse 2]
When grief has left you low, it causes tears to flow
And things have not turned out the way that you had planned
But God won't forget you. His promises are true
Tears are a language God understands

[Chorus]
God sees the tears of a broken-hearted soul
He sees your tears and hears them when they fall
God weeps along with man and takes him by the hand
Tears are a language God understands
