Stephen Stood

Verse 1:
He wasn’t a prophet, he wasn’t a priest,
Just a servant with fire and peace.
Full of the Spirit, wisdom, and grace,
He stood with boldness in a dangerous place.

Verse 2:
The council was gathered, their tempers were flared,
But Stephen spoke, as heaven prepared,
From Abraham’s promise to Israel’s sin,
He told the story from deep within.

Pre-Chorus:
They grit their teeth, they clenched their hands,
But Stephen saw the Son of Man…

Chorus:
Stephen stood as his world came down,
A simple servant, he wore no crown.
But love was his robe, and truth was his sword,
He saw the heavens open to the Lord.
He cried, “Forgive them!” through the pain and blood—
Oh, Stephen stood…
Stephen stood.

Verse 3:
The council covered their ears, they rushed as one,
But Stephen’s eyes were on the Son.
He fell to his knees, with his eyes on high,
As angels waited to take him home in the sky.

Bridge:
He didn’t fight, he didn’t flee,
He saw what others could not see.
Faithful to death, he shone like the day,
Stephen, the martyr, showed us the way.

Chorus:
Stephen stood as his world came down,
A simple servant, he wore no crown.
But love was his robe, and truth was his sword,
He saw the heavens open to the Lord.
He cried, “Forgive them!” through the pain and blood—
Oh, Stephen stood…
Stephen stood.

Outro:
Now when we face the fiery test,
May we, like Stephen, give our best.
Faithful to death, he shone like the day,
Stephen, the martyr, showed us the way.
