Then Thousand Angels Cried Songtext
von Heritage Singers

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 words from His voice
And when He asked the Father "Why has 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 seemed 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 Savior die
God turned His head away, He couldn′t bear the sight
It must have seemed like rain when ten thousand angels cried

It must have seemed like rain when ten thousand angels cried
