Daddy dear tell me please is it true what they say In the heavens there's a cup that gets fuller each day And I've heard that Hashem keeps it close nearby And he fills it with tears each time that we cry
Grampa told me Daddy dear did he tell you the same That when sorrow strikes his people Hashem feels all the pain Tell me why does he cry far away in the sky Tell me why, Daddy dear, are there tears in your eyes
Little one, little one it is true yes it's true Grampa told me years ago and his dad told him too Fathers cry for their children and Hashem does the same When we hurt so does He, yes He feels our pain
Tears of pity from His eyes in this cup sandly flow Till one day when it's full all our troubles will go We will dance we will fly, like the bird in the sky And I cry little 'cuz I'am touched by your words
One more question Daddy dear answer please if you will Just how deep is that cup, tell me when will it fill Don't you think it is time that the sun forever shine Don't you think it is time, dear Daddy of mine
Little one it is true and I question that too Let us ask Him together me and you Father dear do you hear our worries our fears Will your eyes ever dry, is your cup filled with tears
