He could have called 10,000 angels,
They bound the hands of Jesus
in the Garden where he prayed,
They led him through the streets in shame,
They spat upon the Saviour,
so pure and free from sin,
They said, "Crucify Him,
He's to blame".
He could have called 10,000 angels,
to destroy the world, and set Him free.
He could have called 10,000 angels,
but He died alone, for you and me.
Upon his precious head
they placed a crown of thorns,
they laughed and said
"Behold the King."
They struck him
and they cursed him
and mocked his Holy name,
and all along he suffered everything.
He could have called 10,000 angels,
to destroy the world, and set Him free.
He could have called 10,000 angels,
but he died alone, for you and me

How great Thou Art is my fav over 10,000 angels....
i like the last verse best... takes my breath away when we sing it...
When Christ shall come, with shout of acclaimation, and take me Home, what Joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow, in humble adoration, and there proclaim, My God, how Great Thou art.... Then sings my soul, my Savior God to thee, How great thou art, how great thou art, Then sings my soul, my Savior God to thee, How great thou art, how great thou art
have a blessed weekend!

How Great Thou Art all the way. What I love about the song is how the writer takes us through each verse, marveling at the greatness of God and builds us up to the chorus... by the time we get to the chorus I can't help but sing it from my heart. So powerful.

Oh Lord my God, when I in awesome wander...consider all the worlds thy hands have made...I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder, thy power throughout, the universe displayed.....then sings my soul, my Saviour, God to me...How Great Thou Art, How Great Thou Art....
I wish more Christians would sing the words to this song and put them in their heart....
So many fundamentalists are so focused on the negative...and need to remember all of the great things God has given us to enjoy on this earth, and to remind us of his majesty....if we all practiced a little more positive thinking and a little less finger pointing...the world would be a better place...
Thanks for bringing up these songs of inspiration.

I, too, have never heard "Ten Thousand Angels" so I have to go with "How Great Thou Art"

"Ten Thousand Angels" is good but between the two "How Great Thou Art" is most definitely the better.
