I Made Him Cry

I just climbed out of the gutter, and I had a helping hand;

When I looked over........there stood a man.

He looked worse than me, with holes in both His' hands and feet;

But there was something about Him, that made me feel complete.

He said He was the Lamb of God, who gave up the Holy Ghost;

To save souls like mine, who needed Him the most.

I told Him no one cared if I lived, or cared if I died;

When I looked closer.....He had tears in His' eyes.

He said that He loved me, and my soul He came to save;

If only I would believe in Him, He'd rise me up from the grave.

For me He suffered on that cross, hanging there till He died;

It was my sweet Jesus Christ, and I had made Him cry.
