The Cry

The Cry

Composed by: JR Requiroso
Performed by: JR Requiroso


Broken and humbled, I come to You
Lord, I'm so tired, and I don't know what to do
Hear this cry from a contrite heart
I keep silent, not knowing where to start

My actions have been in vain
So Lord, let Your Spirit fall like rain
My hands are empty, and my soul is too
Now I'm crying out for You

CHORUS:
Help me please,
Amidst all these confusions,
This is my confession that I can't live without You
Reach for me,
'Coz my soul yearns for You alone,
a healing to a heart of stone,
and life to a pile of bones

BRIDGE:
And I know, I've made my mistake
Lord, I need Your grace,
Please come into my heart for the rest of my days
And I've seen how far I have strayed from You
Now I'm crying out for You

OUTRO:
When all has been said and done
You gave Your One and Only Son
Now I know I'll live for eternity
No more condemnation, I am free

Note: this song was composed after i had a conversation with a former close friend. The lyrics just flooded into my head and I just started to write it down. When that was done, I'm just so surprised at the outcome. This song has that "Bamboo" genre, with the rapping and singing that has that sort of jazzy kind of tune. Our youth pastor told me that this song would be included in our Youth Praise CD. I pray that you will be blessed by this song. God bless!
