When Did I See You Cry Lyrics


Someone’s child but no one’s friend
A city street alone again
Funny how tears don’t wash away
Even in December rain
Someone’s child you’d never meet
Merchandise on a darkened street
A painted face with a child’s eyes
A paradox of sad disguise
When did I see You cry, oh Lord
When were You all alone
When did I see You so far away from home
Someone’s child now half alive
Lives in a bottle just to survive
Had a home and had a wife
That’s a story from a different life
We’ve all seen Him a time or two
He’s not all that different from me and you
He’s more than a face or a name

He’s a reason why You came
When did I see You cry, oh Lord
When were You all alone
When did I see You so far away
You say I closed my eyes
You say I closed my heart
I never stopped looking
You say I didn’t start
When did I see You cry, oh Lord
When were you all alone
When did I see You so far away
So far away, so far away from home
When did I see You cry, oh Lord
When were You all alone
When did I see You so far away from home

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Formed in 1983 in La Mirada, California by brothers Michael and Robert Sweet and guitarist Oz Fox as Roxx Regime, they would change their message and name to Stryper to go on to be the first Christian rock band to be recognized by the mainstream. According to the To Hell With The Devil Songfacts, Stryper took their name from a Bible verse Isaiah 53: 5, which says "….by His stripes we are healed." Stryper they explained was an acronym meaning "Salvation Through Redemption Yielding Peace, Encouragement and Righteousness."
