It starts with a single teardrop
Descending your cheek, it drops
Down below it becomes a pool
Gently falling, it cannot stop
Some drops are for conviction
When your life, it is displayed
Other drops are for repentance
Shed as your sin washes away
More drops are shed for cleansing
As you’re washed white as snow
Those tears, they keep on falling
Proclaiming a changed life they show
Change comes by shedding a tear
When your heart begins to melt
When the Holy Spirit visits you
Your heart tugged, His presence felt
There’s no shame in shedding a tear
When it brings you to your knees
For God honors those who shed tears
And in you, He is well pleased
