Listen to this wonderful new song called ‘Jesus Cries’ by Riley Clemmons.

“It’s no secret that life gets a little heavy sometimes, like it’s too much for one heart to take
Your smile’s wearing thin, just tryin’ to hold it all in, but it feels like the dam’s gonna break
You are not alone facing that flood behind your eyes, heaven already knows
Every tear that you cry, let ‘em fall like the rain, let ‘em roll down your face”

What a beautiful song, and the music video is also so heartfelt. In the video, Riley is seen sitting on a simple church pew in an empty space singing out the lyrics to ‘Jesus Cries.’

The song reminds us that we can bring our hardships and heaviness to Jesus, because he understands and can be with us in our sadness. We are never alone. He is with us always.
