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 Savior 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 Savior 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 gray
 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 Savior 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.
 

To my dearest family, 
some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, 
that I arrived okay. 
I'm writing this from heaven. 
Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; 
here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy 
just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm  with you 
every morning, noon and night. 
That day I had to leave you when 
my life on earth was through, 
God picked me up and hugged me 
and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; 
you were missed while you were gone. 
As for your dearest family, 
they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; 
you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, 
to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, 
that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, 
was to watch and care for you. 
And when you lie in bed at night, 
the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....
in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, 
and all those loving years
because you are only human, 
they are bound to bring you tears. 
But do not be afraid to cry; 
it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, 
unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all 
that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, 
you wouldn't understand. 
But one thing is for certain, 
though my life on earth is o'er. 
I'm closer to you now, 
than I ever was before. 

There are many rocky roads ahead 
of you and many hills to climb; 
but together we can do it by 
taking one day at a time. 
It was always my philosophy 
and I'd like it for you too... 
that as you give unto the world, 
the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody 
who's in sorrow and pain, 
then you can say to God at night......
"My day was not in vain." 
And now I am contented....
that my life has been worthwhile, 
knowing as I passed along the way, 
I made somebody smile. 

So if you meet somebody 
who is sad and feeling low, 
just lend a hand to pick him up, 
as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, 
and you've got me on your mind; 
I'm walking in your footsteps 
only half a step behind. 

And when it's time for you to go.... 
from that body to be free, 
remember you're not going.....
you're coming here to me
