Product Description

A beautiful, sacred hymn with music by Kevin G. Pace and text by Mary Ann W. Snowball.

Text:
Shouldst Not the Heavens Weep?
. . . for He loveth the world . . .  (2 Nephi 26:24)

In a striking prophecy and opened to his view,
Enoch saw mortality as a glorious truth.
Curtains of creation birthed Gods pure holy race.
Yet what Enoch saw were tears on His saddened face.

How is it that Thou canst weep? Thou art God of all!
All eternity is thine . . . this thy sacred call.
Mercy goes before thy eyes, truth before thy throne.
How is it that Thou canst weep? All thy worlds are known.

Of my soul pure children came, from my very hands.
I gave mankind agency so all love could stand.
But, behold, their sins I see; misry is their doom.
Seeing some shall suffer much, my heart feels entombed.

Shouldest not the heavens weep for these ofmy own?
Suffring for each child of mine, I for them atoned.
Tears that fall are for their souls; these must suffer too.
If they choose not to repent, my love seems untrue.

Chorus:
Shouldst not the heavens weep? God gave life to all.
Shouldst not the heavens weep? His love covers all.
