He Could Have Called Ten Thousand Angels

They bound the hands of Jesus in the garden where he prayed,
They led him through the street 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 ten thousand angels,
To destroy the world and set Him free,

He could have called ten thousand 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 alone he suffered everything.

He could have called ten thousand angels,
To destroy the world and set Him free,

He could have called ten thousand angels,
But he died alone for you and me.

it would be way better with out a lead singer. just an accapella chorus.

I remember singing this song in the youth choir back in the 70's. As the other poster commented, had to believe finding this great song here. And this choir did a tremendous job singing. And the music is powerful and moving.

The way David's playing, singing and dancing is far from nowadays way of dancing playing and singing,.,. It's supposed to be in SoLemn way. also True with how they play cymbal, trumpets and other instruments. It is supposed to make you feel GOD, not merely feel GOOD. Jazz beats can arouse you, sentimental beat can make you feel sad and emotional, Pop/Rock beat can make you energized. Music holds your emotions. Sing with spirit in understanding even if you use electric guitar or drums

WOW I haven't heard this song for years. The old gospel songs never get old

Thank you Lord Jesus for not calling the angels to take you home.

I know how it feels to be betrayed by someone you once thought was your best friend. My best friend turned his back on me in high-school and became the right hand man of the worst bully I have ever seen. I eventually stood up to that bully and in my heart, I forgave my friend for turning his back on me. What hurts me the most is that my friend was blind to the fact that I’m one-hundred times the man his evil “boss” could ever dream of being. The sinner refused to repent in this case. ;-(
