Song Lyrics


Even The Stones
by Michael James Murphy

Album: Tender Heart


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 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

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
