When tearing down a building or breaking down a wall,

You start by loosening one key stone to make the others fall.

If you’re constructing a house or wall, you add one stone at a time.

You’re fitting them all together, with reason and with rhyme.

Stones are solid pieces of rock, each one strong on its own.

But how they’re set together is when total strength is known.

Still needing a strong ingredient to hold them fast and tight.

A highly qualified agent, with binding strength and might.

A stone was used to build the church, the cornerstone of our beliefs.

The one who wants to help us grow, the Vine for branches and leaves.

Each leaf a stone, all shapes and sizes, talents to make a blend.

Every stone a house of worship, for the Holy Spirit to mend.

For the church is not a building, its believers are far and wide.

Working together arm in arm, there’s strength in side by side.

Each stone a part of a solid rock, the one on which we stand.

Lean on it for understanding, your role in Gods great plan.

A stone was used to seal the tomb, to keep unwanted out.

And used to keep a body in, so none could falsely shout.

The cross represents a symbol, for what Christ did that day.

Pain and death for all our sins, the price He had to pay.

I believe another symbol should very well be the stone.

Cause when that stone was rolled away, it built us all a home.

A place to live forever, without life’s pain and fears.

A house for His sons and daughters, no room for any tears.
