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 Savior die of

His own choice.

I 've never seen the 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 sun 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.
