We All Cry
Amanda Cook's 'We All Cry' is a gentle, comforting song that acknowledges the universal experience of tears and the deep human need for care and presence. It tells the story of a woman who feels betrayed and weary, but finds solace in a friend's note and in the words of Jesus, who promises never to leave her. The song validates crying as a natural and healthy release, while pointing to God's faithful companionship as the ultimate source of strength. It encourages listeners that it's okay to cry and that they are not alone, because God is always by their side.
The front door closed behind her
She let out a sigh
She leaned her head against it
And slowly closed her eyes
Was it worth the trouble?
She felt betrayed again
Then she saw the little note
A letter from a friend
We all cry sometimes
We all need someone who cares
We all cry sometimes
We all need someone who'll be there
Another day had ended
She headed for her bed
When she saw the little Book
With all His words in red
"I will never leave you"
She wanted to believe
That He'd always be there
And that's exactly what she needs
We all cry sometimes
We all need someone who cares
We all cry sometimes
We all need someone who'll be there
We all cry sometimes
We all need someone who cares
We all cry sometimes
We all need someone who'll be there
We all cry
It's okay to cry
So let the tears you have inside
You have inside fall, fall
'Cause we all cry, she cries, I cry, he cries, we all cry sometimes
We all cry sometimes
She cries, I cry, he cries, we all cry, we all cry sometimes
We all cry
The front door closed behind her
She let out a sigh
She knew that she could make it
With Someone by her side
