       [Verse] 
       
      The skies were dark the earth did weep 
       
      A heavy heart that couldn't sleep 
       
      Man's wicked ways carved deep and wide 
       
      In shadows where the truth can't hide 
       
      [Chorus] 
       
      Oh it grieved Him deep it broke His soul 
       
      A love so vast now bore the toll 
       
      He made the world with hands so kind 
       
      But sorrow filled His holy mind 
       
      [Verse 2] 
       
      He saw the hearts all drenched in sin 
       
      The fire burned cold deep within 
       
      Every thought a crooked line 
       
      Evil roots on the holy vine 
       
      [Chorus] 
       
      Oh it grieved Him deep it broke His soul 
       
      A love so vast now bore the toll 
       
      He made the world with hands so kind 
       
      But sorrow filled His holy mind 
       
      [Bridge] 
       
      Tears like rain fell from the sky 
       
      For man who chose to live a lie 
       
      The Maker's heart so full of grace 
       
      Now shattered by the human race 
       
      [Verse 3] 
       
      But even through the darkest pain 
       
      A seed of hope began to reign 
       
      A promise whispered through the storm 
       
      Love reborn in a brand new form  |
