A Stone

a stone that makes men stumble
a rock that makes them fall
fallen ones lay all around me
I cannot count them all

chorus:
fallen broken and captured

a trap for both the houses
of Israel a snare
many more of them will stumble
and they seem not to care

chorus

do not speak as they speak
do not fear what they fear
the Lord Almighty is holy
let his be the words you hear

he has hidden his face
they have sought out lies
chased after myths and falsehood
in the market one buys
a book that undermines the Word
which has been written on our hearts
he has hidden his face
they have sought out lies

chorus

a sanctuary for you
put your trust in him
even when his face is hidden
even when his face is hidden
