The Angels Cried

The Angels Cried - Country Music All-Stars

They came from near

They came from far

Following a distant star

To where he lay

Not being sure of what it meant

But knowing it was Heaven sent

They made there way

And the creatures gathered 'round

And didn't make a sound

And the Angels cried

The angels knew what was to come

The reason god has sent his son from up above

It filled their hearts with joy to see

And knowing of his destiny

Came tears of love

And the creatures gathered 'round

And didn't make a sound

And the Angels cried

I've often thought about that night

And wondered if they realized that star so bright

Was sent to tell all of the land the son of god

Would soon become the son of man

And the creatures gathered 'round

And didn't make a sound

And the Angels cried

And the Angels cried

And the Angels cried
