The Denied Stone

The Denied Stone - Vanessa Bell Armstrong

Written by：Loris Holland/Marvin L. Winans

The stone

That the builders refused

Has become the head corner

The stone rejected by men

Has become the one to save them

The stone that stood alone

Has become the stone that brought them liberty

Make a change

So don't feel bad when you don't fit in

With the world's fast pace

Don't be discouraged no no

When all of your friends

They laugh in your face

It's not so much the things you do

But it's just the stone that lies in you

So don't you think you can't stand alone

Yes you can you and the denied stone

Let me tell you about the story

He's the stone that shall never be moved

He's the rock

Of all ages

He's the stone that went rolling down through Babylon

Tearing down the kingdom of the world

Rolled into hell and loosed the saints from satan's cages

He's the stone they crucified

But He rose and said behold I'm still alive

Thank you Jesus

He's the mountain

That's just laying in zion

A chief a precious cornerstone

He's the stone that's low enough

To hear His people crying

And we're never ever left alone

He'll give life when life is gone

For I heard them say we all love that stone

So don't you ever think you can't stand alone

Yes you can you and the denied stone

Say

I can stand I can make it

Yeaah no matter what friends may say

You can go on anyway hey

I can stand I can make it

You see I've been down

But I'm coming up and I'm coming up

Yes I can stand I can make it

Yeaah yes I can me and the denied stone

I can stand I can make it

Yeaah yes you can you and the denied stone

Stand therefore

Stand anyhow

You and the denied stone
