[male vocals] Verse 1:
Chosen
to
ServeSeven
men
of
good
report,
full
of
faith
and
light,
Stephen
stood
before
the
crowd,
walking
in
the
might.
Distributing
the
daily
bread,
serving
widows
well,
With
grace
and
power
in
his
hands,
wonders
started
to
swell.
But
critics
rose
to
challenge
him,
fighting
with
their
lies,
Yet
they
could
not
match
the
wisdom
shining
from
his
eyes.
ChorusOh,
look
up
to
the
open
sky,
see
the
heavens
gleam,
The
Son
of
Man
is
standing
there,
fulfilling
every
dream!
From
Abraham
to
Jesus
Christ,
the
truth
will
always
stand,
Though
you
reject
the
Righteous
One,
salvation
is
at
hand.
Verse 2:
The
Sermon
of
TruthBefore
the
council
Stephen
stood,
an
angel’
s
face
aglow,
He
took
them
through
the
history
that
they
were
supposed
to
know.
From
Abraham
in
Haran's
land,
to
Joseph
sold
in
grief,
To
Moses
in
the
wilderness,
who
brought
the
law's
relief."
Our
fathers
built
a
tent
for
God,
and
Solomon
a
dome,
But
the
Most
High
does
not
dwell
in
houses
made
of
stone!"
Verse 3:
The
Ultimate
Betrayal"
You
stiff-necked
people,
hard
of
heart,
you
always
will
resist,
The
Holy
Spirit's
calling
voice,
just
like
your
fathers
did!
Which
prophet
did
they
not
pursue?
Which
one
did
they
not
slay?
And
now
you
killed
the
Righteous
One,
and
cast
His
law
away!"
The
council
gnashed
their
teeth
in
rage,
their
hearts
were
cut
with
pride,
But
Stephen
looked
straight
into
heaven,
filled
with
peace
inside.
Outro:
The
First
MartyrThey
dragged
him
out
the
city
gates,
the
stones
began
to
fly,
A
young
man
named
Saul
watched
the
coats,
as
Stephen
looked
on
high."
Lord
Jesus,
please
receive
my
soul,
forgive
them
of
this
sin,"
He
fell
asleep
into
the
night,
as
life
eternal
did
begin.
