Crying Angels
The angels stood at attention
Waiting for the call
To free God's only begotten Son
Who would die for one and all
Imagine how they watched the Lord
Who knew them all by name
As He offered both His hands to them
Who would cause Him so much pain
All of Heaven went silent
As they nailed Him to the tree
I wonder how the angels felt
As they watched His Agony
Jesus could have called them
Ten thousand angels strong
But He knew He had to finish
What He'd waited for so long
And when He said it's finished
He gave up the Ghost and died
It must have looked like rain that day
As ten thousand angels cried
