Mourning to morning

“He will wipe away every tear . . . and death shall be no more, neither . . . mourning . . . , for the former things have passed away.” Rev21.4 ESV

Oh man of sorrows
Do you wipe away our tears,
We who have caused your grief;

Do you destroy death for us,
We, who put you to death in unbelief?

Oh man of sorrows
Do you abolish our pain,
We who have caused your own;

Do you still weep and cry for us,
We, who rejected you, despised and alone

Oh man of sorrows
Let us cry with you now until all mourning
Will melt into the joy of your eternal morning.
