They came from near,they came from far

Following a distance star to where He lay

Not being sure of what it mean,but

Knowing it was 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



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



And the creatures gathered 'round

And didn't make a sound

And the angels cried



And the Angel Cried

And the Angel Cried
