When early morning came Footsteps trudged up the hill A gathering of angry faces Loathing hung on their lips Who will be the first to cast a stone? I'm thrown down into the dirt Looking so used and loveless Nobody makes a defense Frozen with bated breath Who will be the first to cast a stone? Mercy steps in with fearless tenderness Who is this man? Unashamed to stand at my defense What is this love that forgives like this? ♪ He knelt down by me in the dirt Leaving them stunned and speechless They turned away in shame Holding on tight to their secrets Staying there by my side Asking, "Where's your condemners?" "No one remains here, Lord" "Then I don't condemn you either" There was no one left to cast a stone From now on go and sin no more Mercy stepped in with fearless tenderness Who is this man? Unashamed to stand at my defense What is this love that forgives like this? What is this love that forgives like this?
