**TEN THOUSAND ANGELS CRIED**

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 OF 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
IT MUST HAVE LOOKED LIKE RAIN
WHEN TEN THOUSAND ANGELS CRIED
