When The Angels Cried"
Stillness filled the Heavens
On crucifixion day,
Some say it rained,
But 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 that 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 grey;
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 that 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.

Heaven's Grocery Store
As I was walking down life's
Highway many years ago
I came upon a sign that read
Heavens Grocery Store.
When I got a little closer
the doors swung open wide
And when I came to myself
I was standing inside.
I saw a host of angels.
They were standing everywhere
One handed me a basket
and said "My child shop with care."
Everything a human needed
was in that grocery store
And what you could not carry
you could come back for more
First I got some Patience.
Love was in that same row.
Further down was Understanding,
you need that everywhere you go.
I got a box or two of Wisdom
and Faith a bag or two.
And Charity of course
I would need some of that too.
I couldn't miss the Holy Ghost
It was all over the place.
And then some Strength
and Courage to help me run this race.
My basket was getting full
but I remembered I needed Grace,
And then I chose Salvation for
Salvation was for free
I tried to get enough of that to
do for you and me.
Then I started to the counter
to pay my grocery bill,
For I thought I had everything
to do the Masters will.
As I went up the aisle
I saw Prayer and put that in,
For I knew when I stepped outside
I would run into sin.
Peace and Joy were plentiful,
the last things on the shelf.
Song and Praise were hanging near
so I just helped myself.
Then I said to the angel
"Now how much do I owe?"
He smiled and said
"Just take them everywhere you go."
Again I asked "Really now,
How much do I owe?"
"My child" he said, "God paid your
bill a long long time ago."
I believe this was written by Helen Stiener Rice
