God knows, I've tried. . .

The tears the heart cannot hide
~\%~
The floods of pain the love that died
~\%~
The heart bleeds hurt rivers are cried
~\%~
The streams of sorrow the red seas are wide
~\%~
The stormy oceans the high heavy tide
~\%~
Thunderstorms in this life I try to ride
~\%~
Waiting for justice to be by my side
~\%~
For love has grieved me tears have not dried
~\%~
Injustice is rife, sin is never satisfied
~\%~
For righteousness the lord God knows I've tried.
