LYRIC
FATHER DON’T CRY- Sung & Composed By Avraham Fried- Bein Kach Ubein Kach
I will never forget
the night I saw my father cry
I was frightened and alone
and his tears were burning in my eyes
deep in my soul
I held him tight
and tried to ease the pain.
Father in heaven
it’s no secret at all
when You think of Your children
how far they are from home
two tender tears fall from Your eyes
and Your cries shake the world
I cannot bear to see You this way.
Father don’t cry
I love You too much to see You in pain
and only You Who created tears
can wipe them away forever
so bring on the day
when there’ll be only joy
You and I will smile
bring on the day
when there’ll be be no more tears
we’ll never cry again.
I know it’s tears of love
but still it hurts me just the same
You have always held my hand
and now I want to hold Yours too
and be there for You
don’t You agree
it’s time to send the tears away.
Father in heaven
there’s no reason at all
Your precious children
still are so far from home
we’ve done all we can
now it’s in Your hands
let it end, oh, let it end,
the whole world is waiting for You.
Father don’t cry
I love You too much to see You in pain
and only You who created tears
can wipe them away forever
so bring on the day
when there’ll be only joy
You and I will smile
bring on the day
when there’ll be be no more tears
we’ll never cry again.
