| (1) Stones stacked up all around me- I could see the end so clear. Forced to face the fires of justice- Buried deep in guilt and fear. Many men surround me With hatred in their speech. But in the midst of angry men- I hear the sweet sound of peace. (Chorus) The Cornerstone builds a refuge All around me - mercy and grace. With each stone that would break me He builds a resting place. He takes away the rubble Of a life so full of sin And fills the emptiness with love- Forgiveness and grace without end. (2) The first stone intercepted By a gracious, loving God. There is no condemnation- But forgiveness and much more! From all that I was becoming Now I am made whole. Mercy built a new road Beginning with just one stone. (Chorus) The Cornerstone builds a refuge All around me - mercy and grace. With each stone that would break me He builds a resting place. He takes away the rubble Of a life so full of sin And fills the emptiness with love- Forgiveness and grace without end. |
