Use These Tears
w: Carl Hardeman, m: Paul Springer

1. Use these tears, wash my eyes,
cleanse my sins, hear my cries.

[Chorus:] Use these tears, let them fall,
wash my sins, cleanse them all.

2. Use these tears, wash out pain,
'til I feel, no more shame.

3. Wash this hurt, give me peace,
wash my pride, hum-ble me.

4. Let me learn, let me feel,
pre-cious thoughts, peace be still.

[Ending] Use these tears.

NOTES: Another song from Carl Hardeman inspired by the
woman who was as sinner, knew her sin, yet washed Jesus's
feet with her tears and her hair. Also, Peter - when he
denied Jesus three times, wept bitterly. If we could
only be so humble and sincere in our repentance.
