I wish you wouldn’t do this to yourself.
You’re such a treasure to me.
I don’t know why you’re doing this.
Think of all that you could be!
So I cry my silent tears.
I cry the tears you’ll never see.
Jesus sees my silent tears.
He’ll use them to set you free.

I saw you differently.
It feels so wrong to see you this way.
Sometimes I want to give up,
I just want to give up and run away!
Then I cry my silent tears.
I cry the tears that know what to say.
Jesus hears my silent tears.
He’ll use them to wipe your scars away.

You’ve been through so much already.
Your life seems like an endless race.
Never give up, never go alone.
Someone’s here to slow the pace.
So cry your silent tears.
Cry the tears that soften your face.
Jesus will feel your silent tears.
He’ll lead you to a better place
