Not All Tears Are an Evil

ScriptureRevelation 21:3-4 (NRSVUE)

And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying,

"See, the home of God is among mortals.

He will dwell with them;

they will be his peoples,

and God himself will be with them and be their God;

he will wipe every tear from their eyes.

Death will be no more;

mourning and crying and pain will be no more,

for the first things have passed away."

RefrainGod will wipe every tear from my eyes.

QuoteJ.R.R. Tolkien, from The Return of the King
