Even the Stones

Lyrics

Branches of palm stretched out along The road of Jerusalem Welcoming home the victorious One Thinking their time had come For three years He taught them How God loved them so He preached and He healed Still they didn't know He came just to die So new life He could bring They thought He had come To be an earthly king Even the stones would have praised Him Even thе mountains and hills would sing Hosanna in the highest, Christ is come Evеn the stones would have praised Him All of creation declare Him king He humbly prayed, let thy will be done He rode through the throng Whose cries were so strong But they didn't understand The reason for tears Amid all of the cheers What caused the pain in this man "Rebuke thy disciples" The Pharisees cried They called Him a teacher And yet they denied The truth that He taught That He came here to save As they conspired to silence the praise Even the stones would have praised Him Even the mountains and hills would sing Hosanna in the highest, Christ is come Even the stones would have praised Him All of creation declare Him king He humbly prayed, let thy will be done Not one shout of praise As he staggered in pain And headed for Calvary Deserted by even His closest believers Alone and in agony He gave up His spirit fulfilling the plan To be seated in glory At the Father's right hand His enemies conquered By the Spirit's sword The King of kings, the Lord of Lords Even the stones would have praised Him Even the mountains and hills would sing Hosanna in the highest, Christ is come Even the stones would have praised Him Even the mountains and hills would sing Hosanna in the highest, Christ is come Even the stones would have praised Him All of creation declare Him king He humbly prayed, let thy will be done Even the stones would have praised Him Even the mountains and hills would sing Hosanna in the highest, Christ is come Even the stones would have praised Him All of creation declare Him king He humbly prayed, let thy will be done
