The Angels Cried Lyrics

(Harley Allen/Deborah Nims)

[Alan]
They came from near, they came from far
Following a distance star to where He lay,
Not being sure of what it meant,
But knowing it was heaven-sent,
They made their way.

[Alan]
And the creatures gathered 'round
And didn't make a sound
And the angels cried

[Allison]
The angels knew what was to come
The reason God had sent His son
From up above
It filled their hearts with joy to see and
Knowing of His destiny
Came tears of love

[Allison]
And the creatures gathered round
and didnt make a sound
[Both]
and the angels cried

[Alan]
I've often thought about that night
And wondered if they realized
That star so bright
[Allison]
Was sent to tell all the land
The Son of God would soon become
The Son of Man

[Both]
And the creatures gathered 'round
And didn't make a sound
And the angels cried
And the angels cried
And the angels cried.
