The Angels Cried Lyrics - Alan Jackson

They came from near, they came from far 

Following a distant star to where he'd lay 

Not being sure of what it meant 

But knowing it was heaven sent, they made their 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 had 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 the land 

The Son of God would soon become the Son of Man
