About the song

Listen
Most of my songs start out as small ideas or just words or phrases and this song started out as a fast paced, hard, rock tune but then I got together with a talented guitarist, Kyle Rice in the Pirates Dinner Adventure boys greenroom/bathroom in between shows (we both worked there) and I started to tell him what my ideas were and he just stared playing and then the song and melody just kinda re-wrote itself. It took us only 1 hour to write the entire song. My message with this song is that I’m speaking to someone who may not know the Lord and I’m telling them about the power of God’s peace and that no matter what they are going through, that they can just call upon the Lord and He will be your refuge. Psalm 62. Instead of making it this intricate rock song, it’s a simple acoustic song, because the message is so simple. The answer is so simple. God will dry your tears.

Lyrics

Verse
What if I told you?
The gifts He showed you?
The way, the truth
And the life

What if I told you?
He who loved you first?
He paid the sacrifice

Pre-Chorus
How many times must I tell you?
How many ways can you fall?
It seems we’ve going ‘round for hours now
And now you see you’ve hit a wall

Chorus
Don’t cry
He’ll hold you
He loves you, so you know
Don’t cry
He’ll show you
He gave you His life
so you can live forever

Verse
So now you know
To be free from darkness
You must repent from sin
So now you know
Of Christ Lord Jesus
You must be born again

Pre-Chorus 
How many times must I tell you? 
How many ways can you fall? 
It seems we’ve going ‘round for hours now
And now you see you’ve hit a wall 

Chorus 
Don’t cry 
He’ll hold you 
He loves you, so you know
Don’t cry 
He’ll show you 
He gave you His life 
so you can live forever

Bridge
I know you’re scared now,
I know you’re lost no where to run to, love…
It’ll be alright,
Just trust the Lord and praise His holy name
 
​Repeat Chorus x2
