Not a Stone Left Standing

Verse 1 Morning broke across the temple wall Dust rising under restless feet Voices moving through the crowd Sharp and hungry in the heat They dragged her through the narrow street Every eye already judged Hands already closed on stone Waiting for the law to speak Verse 2 Crowds pressed closer to the scene Dust and whispers in between Every shadow leaned to see How the law would finally speak Stones like thunder in their hands Waiting for the first command Pre Chorus They turned to Him with quiet pride A question meant to trap His side Chorus Then He said The one among you free from sin Let that hand be first to begin Let the stone rise through the sky If your heart has never lied Silence spread across the land Stones grew heavy in their hands I don’t condemn you! I don’t condemn you! Verse 3 He bent down and touched the dust Lines appearing in the sand Words no shouting voice could break He rose and spoke the truth Every conscience had to face Verse 4 One stone struck the silent ground Then another softer sound Older hands began to shake First to feel the weight they carried Footsteps fading from the square Judgment leaving in the air The circle slowly fell apart Until no judge was standing there Pre Chorus The stones remained upon the floor But the crowd was there no more Only two stood in the light Her broken heart and mercy’s sight Chorus Then He said Where are those who accuse you now Look around this empty ground Her voice trembling but clear somehow None remain, Señor I don’t condemn you! I don’t condemn you! Bridge One stone falling to the sand Justice slipping from their hands No fire burning in His voice No chains waiting in His hands Only mercy standing there Where shame used to stand Final Chorus Where are those who accuse you now The square lies silent all around The stones that once were meant to fall Never touched her skin at all And through the silence He said I don’t condemn you! I don’t condemn you! Outro Dust remembers where they stood When mercy spoke where judgment would And every stone left on the ground Was silence louder than the crowd © 2026 Gris All rights reserved
