Sharing the holy word of Christ With those who sent Him to death Strong in the midst of adversity Stephen the saint sought life Through his brave endurance Sharing the holy word of Christ With those who sent Him to death trong in the midst of adversity Stephen the saint sought life Through his brave endurance Denouncing the Jewish leaders lies Their beliefs contrary to the truth Standing strong for the knowledge of Christ Ready to lay down his life Acting as an immovable force For the sake of the gospel Trusting in The Lord for salvation Granted for his unshakable faith Cast from the city unjustly Accused of blasphemy He was sentenced to death By pelting and stoning Brutally pelted with unrelenting force The stones bashed and they bruised without end Crushing the bones beneath his peeling flesh The light in his eyes fades as he takes his dying breath The light in his eyes fades as he dies The light in his eyes fades as he dies Acting as an immovable force For the sake of the gospel Trusting in The Lord for salvation Granted for his unshakable faith Sharing the holy word of Christ With those who sent Him to death Strong in the midst of adversity Stephen the saint sought life Through his brave endurance Sharing the holy word of Christ With those who sent Him to death Strong in the midst of adversity Stephen the saint sought life Through his brave endurance
