I am a word nut. I love written words. However,a there are days when words won’t do. Charlie Peacock explains this best.
Now Is The Time For Tears
Now is the time for tears
Don’t speak
Save your words
There’s nothing you could say
To take this pain away
Don’t try so hard
You can just simply be
Cry with me don’t try to fix me friend
That’s how you’ll comfort me
Heavenly Father cover this child with mercy
You are my helper through this time of trial and pain
Silence the lips of the people with all of the answers
Gently show them now is the time
Now is the time
Now is the time for tears ~ Charlie Peacock, album Corem Deo, Sparrow Records, ’92
Job 16:19-21 (New International Version)
19 Even now my witness is in heaven;
my advocate is on high.
20 My intercessor is my friend [a]
as my eyes pour out tears to God;
21 on behalf of a man he pleads with God
as a man pleads for his friend.
