Fragile Stone Lyrics
You bore the burden of a name Along a road that would lead to the cross Bold and broken, upside down A light for the least and the lost
He called you the rock, the foundation Of a temple formed from God's love His robe of forgiveness wrapping you up Meant trusting in Him was enough
His love called you out on the water And held you when you were alone For you were the rock that was Broken by love, forever the fragile stone
His love was the hammer that broke you By His gentle and powerful hand The mystery of mercy undid your denials At last you could finally stand
The door that He opened was freedom The door that He closed was your fear Simply to rest in the arms of His love Made all your doubts disappear A stone that is dropped in the water Will vanish and soon disappear But the waves that move out from the center In time they will reach everywhere
