Ten thousand angels cried lyrics

Stillness filled the heavens, on crucifixion day.

Some say it rained, I don't know if it's true.

Well, 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 words from his voice.

And when he asked the father why has thou forsaken me.

They watched the saviour 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 saviour 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 sun slipped away

The skies turned to grey

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 saviour 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.
