I see up there God’s crying
crying over us
crying for our mess
the sickness and the pus.

He’s given us a garden
a place to roam and play
instead it turned into
a jungle where we prey.

I see up there in Heaven
God is crying
crying over us
crying for the squabbles
the anger and the fuss.

I see up there God’s crying
and with Him I cry too
hoping one day soon
our world will grow anew.
