[Verse 1] Please collect my tears in Your bottle When the night feels longer than I can bear You have seen the doors that were closed against me You have counted every unanswered prayer [Pre-Chorus] When trusted hands let go You stayed closer than I know [Chorus] You keep my tears, You know my name You hear the sound beneath my pain Not one drop falls outside Your care My loving Father, You are there You understand, You understand The weight I carry in these hands [Verse 2] David cried through a weary midnight His bed was a witness to every plea Still he knew that the One who heard his weeping Was the One who would not abandon me [Pre-Chorus] Though people turn away Your faithful love remains [Chorus] You keep my tears, You know my name You hear the sound beneath my pain Not one drop falls outside Your care My loving Father, You are there You understand, You understand The weight I carry in these hands [Bridge] Write it down, remember it all Every trembling breath, every time I fall You do not shame the tears I hide You hold the broken places inside [Final Chorus] You keep my tears, You know my name You hear the sound beneath my pain Not one drop falls outside Your care My loving Father, You are there You understand, You understand And gently help me rise again [Outro] Please collect my tears in Your bottle I am seen, I am held, I am not alone
