Ten Thousand Angels Cried

Stillness filled the Heavens
On crucifixion day
Some say it rained
I don't know if it's true
But I can just imagine
Ten thousand angels cried
That would seem like rain
To me and you

The angels all stood ready
To take Him from the tree
They waited for the word
From His voice
And when He asked the Father
"Why hast Thou forsaken me?"
They watched the Savior die
Of His own choice

I've never seen ten thousand angels cry
But I'm sure they did as they stood by
And watched the Savior die
God turned His head away
He couldn't bear the sight
It must have looked like rain
When ten thousand angels cried

As the Son slipped away
The skies turned to gray
And when Jesus gave His all
That's when the tears began to fall

I've never seen ten thousand angels cry
But I'm sure they did as they stood by
And watched the Savior die
God turned His head away
He couldn't bear the sight
It must have looked like rain
When ten thousand angels cried
It must have looked like rain
When ten thousand angels cried
