West, Matthew - Every Tear Lyrics
The world just took another spin in the wrong direction
Hate found a handgun
And now nobody feels safe
I gotta turn off the news
So my kids don't see another tragedy
Just when I think it can't get worse
It gets worse
There are no words to say
How much more can our hearts take?
In this shattered place where our shadows cover
Where we speak of love while we hurt each other
My heart aches for home right now more than ever
But I'm holding on to the hope of heaven
You will wipe away every tear
You will wipe away every tear
There will be no more terror
No more riots in the street
And we will all be seen beyond the color of our skin
No more fighting, no more war, no more hunger left ignored
No more sickness no more pain
We are here for now but we won't stay
In this shattered place where our shadows cover
Where we speak of love while we hurt each other
My heart aches for home right now more than ever
But I'm holding on to the hope of heaven
And the promise that the day is drawing near
You will wipe away every tear
You will wipe away every tear
The Lord is close to the broken hearted
The Lord is close to the broken hearted
Oh Lord be close to the broken hearted
We need you now
We need you now
In this shattered place where our shadows cover
Where we speak of love while we hurt each other
My heart aches for home right now more than ever
But I'm holding on to the hope of heaven
And the promise that the day is drawing near
You will wipe away every tear
You will wipe away every tear
Lord be close to the broken hearted
Lord be close to the broken hearted

West, Matthew Every Tear Comments
It’s been 3 years and today we have #sandyhook #elpaso #parkland and more
“Where we speak of live but we hurt each other” what a line
God bless the peacekeepers for they shall be the children of god
Why can I not find this song on Spotify?! It’s so good 😭❤️
Are you living your Christian life? Are you salt & light? Do people notice? Are you different? Family was just talking about this. And what we all need to fear & be aware of right now is that if they're not, they are probably headed for a very real hell? Where else will they get the good news? The world? 1 of the many different religions? Few there are who take the narrow proper path. You may be their only example? If your not living it or being that light they are probably doomed already? Let's pray for growth, maturity, & courage. They don't wanna hear us, but what if they never do then?? Moms? Sons? Daughters? Neighbors? Friends? Lost. All of them. A river of lost souls. Get involved. Remember what Jesus went through for us. For you!! And them? Shine Christian! Stand up & shine!!!!
As much as I love this song, I can’t wait for the day when it doesn’t resonate so true. 💔
Praying for my hometown of El Paso, Texas.
August 2019...Pray for El Paso and Dayton.💔🙏🏻
I hate how three years later I'm turning to this song after a shooting. #ElPaso
This song is so beautiful and true of our world right now. I seriously need to listen to this every morning to remind myself that no matter what happens, He will wipe away every tear. ❤️
First time listening to this song! On July 2, 2019
God is close to the broken hearted💔
This song could match with police tribute. 💙
I just wish everyone knew of God’s love and power.
If we all did know truly about how much God loves us and others, we’d know there is no reason to hurt each other or be afraid.
I LEARNED SO MANY CHURCHES DONT EVEN KNOW THE DARKNESS THAT LIES AROUND BROKEN PLACES HOW DEMONS HAVE TAKEN OVER THE BODIES OF BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE THAT PEOPLE ARE TRULY SUFFERING INSIDE THEY HAVE NEVER EVEN WITNESSED THEY'RE POWER OF CASTING OUT DEMONS RISING PEOPLE UP FROM SPIRITUAL DEATH TO SPIRITUAL LIFE. EVEN THOUGH IN THE WORD OF GOD TALKS ABOUT A THESE THINGS AND SO MANY BELIEVE THEY DONT DESERVE GODS LOVE YET WE DO LOVE IS A FREE GIFT FROM GOD IF ONLY WE LOOK AT JESUS OUR SCARES ARE HIS SCARES OUR PAIN IS HIS PAIN
JESUS COMING BACK IS WHEN ALL THINGS WILL BE MADE RIGHT AGAIN IN JESUS NAME IN THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AMEN
THE TRUTH IS THOUGH MOST OF OUR LIVES ARE A TRAGEDY ALOT KIDS AREN'T ABLE TO STAY INNOCENT ALOT OF HOMES ARE BROKEN ITS RARE NOW A DAYS THAT HOM3S AREN'T BROKEN THEN WHAT ? CAN YOU SEE IT, GOD'S CREATION THATS SUPPOSED TO BE PURE LOVE THE WORLD HAS TURNED INTO FEAR TEARS US APART JESUS COMING BACK IS THE LAST HOPE LAST FAITH LAST LOVE I PRAY HE COMES SOON IN JESUS NAME IN THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT COME JESUS COME AMEN
I NEED YOU GOD RIGHT NOW I CANT DO THIS IM TIRED I CAN'T FIGHT NO MORE MY FAMILY I LIVE WITH DONT TURN TO YOU I NEED YOU I AM ALONE HERE IN MY HOUSE ITS JUST ME AND YOU NOW
WORDS ARE NOTHING IF THERE'S NO ACTION
I am just trying to love them, show them,comfort them,hold them together in the anger they show when they speak its not love its hate
I am calling on the church to help
Ive done everything to stand in faith i need GOD my hero
Family is not what its supposed to be its BROKEN
My mom isnt getting better my earth dad is falling apart i dont know what to do anymore holy spirit lead me
Help me all i need is the family to love JESUS like its supposed to be Anton knows who jesus yet he chooses anger my daughter Caeley is in pain she just needs hope living in house full of fear anger pain pray jesus coming back is my last hope my last faith my last love i am so very sad they are killing me
My heart aches for every soul that doesn’t k ow Jesus. Most people may not have been brought up the way I have been brought up but they are still a soul that needs to know that that they are loved and that they can conquer anything through Jesus Christ because anything is possible with Jesus. There is nothing too hard for God. God will heal you if you ask him he hears us when we pray! He looking down on us everyday! He knows!
Is there a Spotify for this song?
I am hanging on with all my might and by the strength given to me by Yahuwah Abba
When i hear your music, people say you are married. Is that a problem? Music is troubles for me a lot of times. First, i hear your music because i like, but i don't enjoy the other friends' songs that much. Time and choices is my life, they talk about me get me sick. Second, i am not being with you when i hear your songs. I have my own life and i may have a friendship in my opinion. You don't become a new husband. You are still an older man that take care of me. I like to have a position for you in my life.
Love you, but it is always free to be anything for my life. Fame is popular, then the only thing is over everything for reigning bias.
Enjoy music, not being suffered by people.
Music make messages. Love means itself.
Today, June 28th, 2018, there was a shooting in Annapolis. I work very close to where the shooting took place. It's at times like these when I reflect on the most wonderful part of Christianity: that this life isn't all there is. We have hope. Our true home is heaven, and no one can take that away from us. Thank you Matthew West for this beautiful, pertinent, song.
The Lord is close to the broken-hearted.
THIS SONG DESCRIBES THE WQRLD TODAY!!!!
Thank you so much for your music you all ways have a song for what I am going through and it helps me. God Bless u.
Jesus, come soon ❤🙌
The day is coming soon our Jesus is taking us home
i love this song!! to me i can relate this to For King and Country's 'Proof of Your Love'
because in the middle of the wars, fighting and the pain, Gods Love needs to be shown in us!
This song is Depressing, but beautifully wonderful. It's hard to describe, I can't hate this song. Its what we need this day in age.
I might have to let go of my house and what I thought was my dream but God I trust you and my Church victory outreach of Summerlin women's home is opening there doors for ME so help me God to face this in Jesus name name in the power of the holy spirit AMEN
Merry Christmas to every one and may God bless each and every one every day. If you're reading this God loves you and he can help you through anything even things from the past that you didn't think you could forgive you're self for. God loves each and everyone of you. He made you perfect. You may not think you're beautiful or anything but you are beautiful and perfect and wonderfully made in the eyes of GOD. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE MAY GOD BLESS YOU.
true words, enjoying this song
Wish when I was a certain age this friends dad didn't try to get me to hold his private and I wish I didn't handle it the way I did. Its all my fault he got away with it. I feel like it's all my fault because back then I laughed because that is the only way I knew how to handle it now I hate myself. I just got out of psych unit a week ago yesterday for a suicidal attempt from using a cellphone cord
Carrie Goatley how are you now? GOD loves you! As do I and many others. X
Anita Bradley I am doing better thanks for asking ☺
Rock g I got out a month ago. I didn’t handle what my dad done to me very well. I wish I’d cut it off but at the time it’s so hard to handle. It’s abuse it’s wrong and you’re not to blame x
Matthew this still gets this song is so powerful and so so so so much true
I come back to this song every time there's a shooting... I'm hearing this song too much lately.
"My heart aches for home right now more than ever."
I listen to it when someone dies, specially when It's an officer.
amen but God has been down this path and going down it again with us
Beautiful song!
I dont watch the news anymore
There's a war inside of me just like all of us it's been going on since I can remember but I am winning right now finally at 38 years old thank you god. I am so far from being the man I want and need to be but I no longer fear death cause I know my heart is pure. I forgive the ones I truly loathed and wanted to bring death on. Sometimes when I think my mind is messed up my friend told me it's the devil so that makes me feel a lot better after watching my dad fight dimentia for four years god rest his soul. It's only been 4 months and I think about him constantly
I discovered this song last night, and oh boy, does this song ever stay true.
God bless
We are so close to being his Bride 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️
Thank you...I needed this. It's amazing how these songs come to you when you need them most. Right now life is very difficult and I'm so broken hearted but this song was so beautiful and so relatable. "My heart aces for home right now more than ever but I'm holding on to the hope of Heaven and the promise that the day is drawing near" That explains my present life so perfectly. "He will wipe away every tear" And that explains my future so perfectly.
AMEN! <3
Matthew keep them coming. Thank You for such a strong words that hit everyone's heart, no matter what religion they are. I would just like to see in the near future which is passed, that the all of us Fs would finally be on the same page, we are one after all, some from orangutans, some from gorillas, some from apes, but now we are all one that keeps on evolving from that on, and there is only one power capable of this....
Amen!!! ♡♡♡
"Where we speak of love"
"While we hurt each other"
Wow. Thank you lord for giving this man a gift that we need deeply
Praise God
And we will all be seen...Beyond the color of our skin. Racism is not over slavery is not gone in the world. Hate exists. But in the middle of the hate we need to praise God through it all. GOD BLESS.YALL ARE ALL Beautiful. LOVE YALL. We need to love each other especially in 2017. If we stop the jokes. If we stop the hate. Our words are as powerful as bullets
God forgave the whole's world sin through Jesus Christ's death. Christ paid the price in full for everybody's sin, was buried and rose again to justify us all. If we accept this simple message we are instantly safe and sealed in Christ forever and we receive eternal life. This is the greatest news you'll ever hear.
Maranatha King Jesus.
"Hate found a handgun"... That line
Chloe Snyder I just commented that same thing a couple months back. I know 😐
This is a reminder of the succor we can only find in God in a world that is increasingly violent and unfeeling.
good stuff
So beautiful, bless you Matthew 🙏❤
OMG its so good
Hate found a handgun... Wow that line
that brought tears to my eyes.
Praise you God for hearing our cries for help. You are the Lord God Almighty !!!
i love this song 😃😃😃😃
This is the greatest song ever!
our Lord is faithful,and his worshippers are messengers and I believe and know that the time is near of his return with all my heart..trust and seek him more beyond you have ever gone before..even if you pray and times where you will not receive the answer you seek,you must be patient n constant to going to him..then he will answer you when you least expect it..God bless everyone and bless Matthew west Amen.
First time listening to this song because I can't get to sleep and I just about busted out in tears.
Correction during the second time I started crying really bad and this song is true because I felt better and thought that I clicked on this song because God told me to.
I take my hurts Jesus
Favorite line: In this shattered place, where the shadows cover, where we speak of love while we hurt each other.
It reminds you that the Lord IS very close to the broken hearted! :) Love <3 always wins!
Amen im holding on to the hope of heaven.Jesus will save us all from the terror in tnis world For the bible says "Do not be afraid of sudden terror. Nor the trouble from the wicked when it comes. For the lord will be your confidence, and keep your foot from being caught." Proverbs 3:25-26
I love this song getting bullied is hard on me but this song makes me feel better
Kittty Lover I will keep you in pray.I got bullied for 7 year. I hard to keep going when people are bullying you but God has you on this earth still for a reason,so please don't give up.
I love this song especially because I live in Dallas
Thank you Lord for being so full of love while the world is filled with hate! Thank you for mending our broken hearts while the world continues to break itself! Thank you for wiping our tears oh Lord!
Nice song. Question for you Mr. Matthew West....you wrote this song immediately after the incident in Dallas, Texas as a tribute to the officers. That is nice. How about making another song for all the innocent black people shot by the police for no reason but just for minding their own business?
btrueeth Matthew.
Thanks. I edited it.
im almost 6 and i mite be singing this at church 1 sunday. is it a good song to sing at church
Random Dancer25 If you feel the desire to sing it, sing it. Use your gifts!!!
A song to be shared, a song of hope, a song of understanding, a song to show us the truth and spread life and light. This is what the Lord has given us through Matthew West
Matthew, Thank you so much for this inspiring song and powerful message--there seems to be a shooting, or some act of violence like, almost every week, at least, if not every day. But God is in control and His will will be done--He truly will wipe away every tear one day. #prayforAmerica
"Where we speak of love but hurt each other..." I hear this so much
"My heart aches for home, right now more than ever, but I'm holding on, to the hope of heaven." That part just makes my heart swell.
I ACHE TOO ALL I CAN SEE ANYMORE IS GOING HOME IN THE HEAVENS JESUS COMING BACK TAKING US HOME NO PAIN NO SORROW NO MORE ABUSE NO MORE LIES NO MORE HATE NO MORE FEAR ONLY LOVE
I'm doing amazing and u?
this song makes me think of our world today.
Wonderful!
You can't have happiness without pain
Amen brother amen
I've realised that many off times!!!!!
You wipe every tear away! Praise the Lord
OUR GOD IS COMING:))
Beautiful.. u day it all. in this song.. the fights. the roits.. so on. God Bless
Another Beautiful Song, touches my Heart. Tears starting to come out of my eyes. GOD I Love You so much. Someday You will end the pain. PRAISE GOD
When your great light will make darkness disappear....
Matthew West always writes such great music. Timely song, good job!
We need God more than ever. All this violence is senseless and so wrong.
Hey, Mathew I was listening to one of your songs and I thought when Jesus comes back his children don't half to worry. They way the world is going the more worse it gets the faster Jesus comes back. Jesus will be on a white horse with I flaming sword coming out of his mouth to come save his children
Lord be close to the broken hearted . Praise Jesus
AMEN🙏
Consider the one true loving gentle powerful Lord...He is compassionate...and will wipe away every tear. 🌷
