Smile For Me

Why do you remain unhappy?
Who told you to despair?
It saddens Me to see your face,
But you are not aware.

My children are depressed
For reasons that I’m blamed;
They think they're not forgiven.
They feel so ashamed.

Please believe in My Mercy.
Forget about your sin;
I did, when you repented.
Remembering not, since then.

Oh beloved, smile for Me!
Do not cry anymore;
Just laugh and be free -
That's what I died for.
