The Stones
[Verse 1]
We don't really know much about her
And we don't even know her name
But the way she was treated was a shame
She heard the angry voices
And there was nothing that she could say
It wouldn't have mattered anyway

[Chorus]
All she saw were the stones
All she saw were the stones
She felt so helpless, so all alone
How she longed for the face of a friend, but oh
All she saw were the stones

[Verse 2]
They pulled her from her lovers arms
Out into the street
They drug her to the sinagogue
And threw her at Christ's feet
"This woman is an adultress, and our law is very clear"
The master saw her, looking down
Her eyes were filled with tears

[Chorus]
'Cause all she saw were the stones
All she saw were the stones
She felt so helpless, so all alone
How she longed for the face of a friend, but oh
All she saw were the stones
[Verse 3]
Jesus looked up from the ground
And then He said to them
"You be the first to cast a stone, if you have never sinned!"
One by one they walked away
They left the stones behind
I wish I could have seen her face
When she opened up her eyes!

[Chorus]
'Cause all she saw were the stones
All she saw were the stones
Jesus said, "I forgive you, go and sin no more!"
She knew she'd never be the same, oh no
All she saw was the
All she saw were the stones
All she saw were the stones
Jesus said, "I forgive you, go and sin no more!"
She knew she'd never be the same, oh no
All she saw were the stones
