I wrote this song because I wanted people to know the amazing saving power of Christ. And I wanted to paint a picture of what happened on the day he was crucified. And the hope He brings to all of mankind because of His greata sacrifice.

THE DAY THE ANGELS CRIED-lyrics

Verse:
Dark for light; day turns night; Time stands eerily still
Good becomes bad; Hate seems so glad
But Love will conquer all
Climb:
Nothing is as it appears; your ev'ry sin, every fear
Forever, stripped of their power!
Chorus:
The day when the angels cried
It was the day that my Savior was crucified
When heaven met earth in this great collide over you
The day when the angels cried
It was the day that the King of all glory died
When heaven met earth in the greatest collide over you...
The day the angels cried
Verse:
Grace on trial, a friend's denial
Fate has come and closing in
His flesh battered, their dreams shattered
How can this love prevail?
Climb:
Nothing is as it may seem, the mystery found in between
His three words, "Father forgive them"!
Repeat Chorus:
Bridge:
And it didn't matter what they put Him through
He was born for this reason; to speak to the truth
Nothing could change what He already knew
He had to do.... He really loved you...
Chorus:
The day when the angels cried
It was the day when the King of all glory died
When heaven met earth in the greatest collide over you...
The day the angels cried; He really loves you...
