When the one who owns the mansion
Lets the poor child starve
I want to shout
That's not fair
Yet sometimes when it's hard to share
And I keep things for myself
I wonder if I really care
Chorus
There are tears in Heaven
For the cheating of the poor
There are tears in Heaven
When truth is shown the door
Yet when honesty and fairness return
In Heaven there's the sound of joy once more
Verse 2
When the poor man who weighs his food
Is cheated by the scales
I want to shout
Don't you dare
Yet sometimes when I start to lie
I cover up the truth
I wonder if I really care
Verse 3
When food is weighed on honest scales
And the poor man gets his share
I want to shout
Thank You Lord
By freely sharing all my things
And telling the whole truth
I want to show I really care
