Poetry From The Heart

~Stephen Stoned~

 
Stephen preached the gospel
Many lives were changed
Now old Satan could not take it
He had too much to lose
Stephen a man full of faith

Looked up to Heaven
There he saw Jesus
Standing up for him
A standing ovation
From the Father’s Throne

But down on earth
It was not the same
Noises were so loud
They stopped up their ears
Running toward Stephen

Cast him out of the city
 Stephen was being stoned
While calling upon his God
Lay not this sin to their charge
Then Stephen fell asleep
