From the Nuggets File:
The blood of Abel was not voiceless, and the blood of Jesus was not [silent]; it cried so as to be heard amid the thrones of heaven, and blessed be God, it spoke for us and not against us; it spoke not worse things, as it might well have done, but better things…it did not ask that we might be driven vagabonds and fugitives upon the face of the earth, and to be at last banished from God into hell forever, but it cried, “Father, forgive them,” and it prevailed, and the curse was taken away and a blessing came to the sons of men.
Charles Spurgeon, Christ in the Old Testament, pg. 16.
