D-DU-UDU
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 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.
 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 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.
