You have heard our tears,
You have heard our tears
The tears children have shed in silence;
Tears when there was no one to hear;
You have heard our tears,
You have heard our tears.
Tears dear ones hold back in violence;
Thinking they deserve to live in fear
You have heard our tears,
You have heard our tears.
The tears women and children weep together,
At the hands of their captors;
Cries of pain, cries asking why?
Cries for help from those who feel helpless,
Let them know that you are near.
You have heard our tears,
You have heard our tears,
You have heard our tears.
