Don't Cry Anymore
by Barbara Philbrook

Don't cry anymore, wipe away your tears.
Jesus loves you of this there are no fears.

It's been hard and you've felt alone,
but Jesus is willing to share your burden it's been shown.

Everyone who's tired and has a burden to bear,
is told to call on Jesus and He will be there.

Jesus bore our sins, He took them to the cross,
so of all who accept, none would be lost.

Salvation is being offered to one and all,
and for us to receive it we simply call.

All who call will surely be heard.
We are given this promise in God's Holy Word.

Your life will begin anew that day.
You will look on things in a whole new way.

Never again will you try to make it by yourself.
This alone is worth tremendous wealth.

You'll learn to lean on Jesus for every need,
as on with  life's journey you'll both proceed.

Don't cry anymore, it doesn't do any good.
Call on Jesus as we're told we should.
