Prayer – To Dry my Tears

There are moments when we do cry, when our tears overwhelm us. When all we can do is cry out to the Lord: “Dry my tears!”

The Word tells us there is: A time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance (Ecclesiastes 3:4).

But we can take solace knowing that: weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning (Psalm 30:5).

What a mighty God we serve! This prayer reminds us of the continued love the Lord has for us. We can trust in His mighty word.


Dry my Tears!

Sovereign Savior, my Gentle Jesus, my heart cries out to thee, Oh Lord, my God. Dry my tears. Ease the hurt, relieve the pain, I release it unto You.

These tears that fall and glisten, as the sun rises, long for that unspeakable joy they once knew.

Heavenly Father, catch my tears as they fall. Embrace me with Your warm, open arms with Your undying love, for I feel so worthless. 

Lord, you heal the hopelessness. Lift me up, higher than I’ve even been.


Psalm 120:1 In my trouble I cried to the LORD, And He answered me.

Romans 8:39 Nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in creation will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

My strength and joy

Be my strength, for I am weak when I try to go it alone. Be my joy when sadness arises. Oh Lord, be my guide when I go astray and my comforter in these difficult times.

Dry my tears, Heavenly Father. This ache in my heart needs to go. I cannot go on without You. Holy Spirit, please draw near.


I am down on my knees. I need You now more than ever. You, my Lord, have never failed me, and I am guaranteed that You never will.

Psalm 119:146 I cried to You; save me And I shall keep Your testimonies.

Psalm 34:18 The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

Make me whole, brand new

Though the storms arise and the water rages, I will soar with You and even though I feel shattered and broken, You, Lord, will make me whole and brand new.


Dancing in this rain as I await You, Lord, is truly a pleasure. From this day forth, I speak joy, love, peace, and happiness into not only my life but my family and friends as well.

As You listen to my humble cry, my precious King, I can see abundant blessings on its way, in Jesus’ Mighty name I pray, Amen!

Psalm 126:5 Those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy!

2 Corinthians 7:10 For godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation without regret, whereas worldly grief produces death.

    I pray tonight that you comfort Chris and cloak him in strength. I pray for his mind tonight God. Let him not drift to familiar thoughts of pain or disappointment but rest his mind and remember he is an over-comer.
    Thank you, God, for permitting me this freedom to walk away from what feels good. I can put my trust in you. Lord, I am trusting that as I walk away from this situation, you will bring me closer to what you have in store for me.
    Lord, I am again praying tonight you prepare me, mind, body, and spirit to receive my husband. And I pray you are preparing him to receive me, mind, body, and spirit.
    Lord, please continue to block all distractions brought in by the enemy. Let me always see things for what they are and not what I want them to be.
    I pray tonight Proverbs 23. Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.
    Lord, continue to keep me courageous and lion hearted in all affairs concerning my heart. Keep my mind steadfast on you lord your ways your precepts. My only desire is to please you Lord. Remove every dead thing that does not honor your will and your way. Guide me unto paths of righteousness for your names sake. You are my fortress and my refuge. Of whom shall I be afraid?
    Thank you for being with me through everything Lord. My struggles. My pains. My ups. My downs. My lows my highs. You have wiped every tear and fought every battle. I know even now you are my Lion Of Judah. My shepherd. My great comforter. Keep my eyes fixated on you, so I do not slip and do not fall.
    Thank you for being with me as I studied and I pray you are with me again on my next exam this Saturday Lord.
    You are an awesome God and I love you wholeheartedly. I want to be planted in you. I repent of all the woes and sorrows I’ve caused you and ask for your forgiveness.
    I pray my daughter is not led by the enemy. I pray you break any strongholds the enemy tries to create in my daughter’s mind and show me oh God how to always lead by example.
    I have so much anxiety, God please help me rest easy in you because your yoke is easy and your burden is light.
    Commit to my remembrance all the things I have studied leading up to Saturday. I pray for those that are struggling in their own tribulations and pray you increase their faith and strength in these times.
    You are an awesome God and I thank you for choosing me. I can’t do this life without you. In all things, I pray in your son’s most precious and mighty name, Jesus Christ, Amen

  5. Please dry my tears. I lost both my parents within days of each other. My spouse has not been supportive and has said my unkind things to me. My children are suffering from mental illness and are having difficultly finding what treatment works for them. I have cried so much I am surprised I have any tears let. Please pray for over flowing abundance of love, joy, health, and financial wealth for us that my children an I can be free of pain my husband causes us and that we may use our God given talents to help others. Thank you and may God bless you also.

  9. Thank you heavenly Father for giving me and family constant victory that will never dry, for giving us unshakable faith, for giving us beauty for ashes, for giving us oil of joy for mourning, for giving us the garment of peace and take away the spirit of heaviness. The Lord that is above all the thrones, kings, kingdoms,virtues and above all the riches. i refuse to be attached to the riches of the world that will lead us astray but i choose and declare to dwell in His presence seek His face and experience God’s love that will never cease for your word says the Love of God that will never cease, the mercies that will never end and your mercies are new every morning. Weather devil likes or not your purpose will prevail. Father thank you for restoring my marriage that was stolen by the enemy past ten years but nothing is impossible with you. anything that has been joint by God let not man separate it. thank you for restoring the milk and honey of marriage and make it whole and fruitful again. In deed those who sow in tears will reap in joy.

  13. I need lots of Christians to pray for me because my emotions are pushing me around. I can’t seem to keep control of my emotions and sometimes I have to deal with this all day long. What can I do?

    1. Precious Linda, I will be praying for you and with you that your faith will increase! For your faith (in the Lord) is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen!! Faith becomes your inner strength when you are at your weakest and most vulnerable state of being. When you release your burdens to the barrier carrier, Jesus, you are telling Jesus, I cannot bear this but I trust You and Your word! It is written ; “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavily burdened [by religious rituals that provide no peace], and I will give you rest [refreshing your souls with salvation]. 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me [following Me as My disciple], for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest (renewal, blessed quiet) for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy [to bear] and My burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30 AMP! Try Jesus and believe in His word for it will never fail not return to Him void ! Amen!?
