Mary\u27s Tears

Were not the sinful Mary\u27s tearsAn off\u27ring worthy heav\u27n An off\u27ring worthy heav\u27n When o\u27er the faults of former yearsShe wept and was forgiv\u27nShe wept and was forgiv\u27n When bringing every balmy sweetHer day of luxury storedShe o\u27er her Saviour\u27s hallowed feetThe precious perfume poured And wip\u27d them with that golden hairWhere once the diamond shoneThough now those gems of grief were thereWhich shine for God alone Thou that hast slept in error\u27s sleepOh! would\u27st thou wake in heavenLike Mary kneel, like Mary weep Love much and be forgive
