The Day That Heaven Cried

The day heaven cried

Silent as a lamb
He stood before
His shearers
Not one defense
Would he utter
This king of kings
Then they stripped him
And they beat him
And they hung him
On a cross
All the angels
Watched in wonder
The sacrifice he made
For us all

He laid down his life
And he died
The day that
Heaven cried
He became a curse
Just for us
The day that
Heaven cried

Then they pierced his side
And gambled for
His garments
So great the sin
He became
The father turned away
Then they called him
And they mocked him
And the sky
Grew black with rage
Then the curtain
Ripped asunder
And the great
Exchange was made

He laid down his life
And he died
The day that
Heaven cried
He became a curse
Just for us
The day that
Heaven cried

By his stripes
We are healed
By his blood
Our sin concealed
Oh
Oh oh oh
By his stripes
We are healed
By his blood
Our sin concealed
Oh
Oh oh oh

Death for life
Dark for light
The day that
Heaven cried
He laid down his life
And he died
The day that
Heaven cried
He became a curse
Just for us
The day that
Heaven cried
He took all the blame
And the shame
The day that
Heaven cried
