I
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 cryinng
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 while he asked the father Why hast thou forsaken me?
They watched the savior die by his own choice.
Chorus
I’ve never seen ten thousand angels crying.
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.
Bridge
As the sun slipped away and the skies turned to grey
Then when Jesus gave his own
That’s when the tears began to fall.
