Lyrics
The Angels Cried"
(with Alison Krauss)
Alan]
They came from near
They came from far
Following a distant star
To where he lay.

Not being sure of what it meant
But knowing it was Heaven sent
They made there way.

And the creatures gathered 'round
And didn't make a sound
And the Angels cried.

[Alison]
The angels knew what was to come
The reason god has 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
[Both]
And the Angels cried.

[Alan]
I've often thought about that night
And wondered if they realized that star so bright
[Alison]
Was sent to tell all of the land the son of god
Would soon become the son of man.

[Both]
And the creatures gathered 'round
And didn't make a sound
And the Angels cried.
And the Angels cried.
And the Angels cried...

ALISON KRAUSS JOINS ALAN JACKSON FOR 1993 CHRISTMAS SONG, ‘THE ANGELS CRIED’
We’re getting in the holiday spirit and there’s nothing that will get you in a festive mood quite like Christmas music.
One of our favorite Christmas songs, ‘The Angels Cried,’ comes from Alan Jackson and Alison Krauss. In 1993, just four years after his debut album hit shelves, Jackson released his first Christmas album titled Honky Tonk Christmas. At the time, Alison Krauss had already won a Grammy and was a world-renowned fiddle player. However, country music fans had yet to be introduced to the angelic voice of the bluegrass prodigy.

In the video for ‘The Angels Cried,’ we hear 22-year old Krauss beautifully complimenting Jackson’s twangy country sound with her crystal clear vocals.
Here is the original video by Alan Jackson
