Ten Thousand Angels
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 crying
And that would seem like rain to me and you
The angels all stood ready as they led Him to the tree
They waited for the words from His voice
And there 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 seemed like rain
When ten thousand angels cried
As the Son slipped away
The sky turned to grey
That's when Jesus gave His all
And 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 my Saviour die
God turned His head away
He couldn't bear the sight
It must seemed like rain
When ten thousand angels cried
It must seemed like rain
When ten thousand angels cried
