Who Among Us

They called him a demon
But he was no more than a man
And the crimes for
Which they censured him
Were too much for them to understand
So much for forgiveness
An open hand, a spirit of grace
And the world that he'd built anew
Was torn apart and taken away

Let him who hath understanding now
Occupy this throne
And any man who is without sin, let him
Cast the first stone
Will it be you
Will it be me
Who among us will cast the first stone

The words of Christ must have fallen on
Deaf ears and stony ground
For his disciples took his wisdom and
Twisted it around
Will it be you
Will it be me
Who among us is worthy
To cast the first stone

Deliver the first stone if you can
Deliver the first blow if you be
Worthy of your fellow man
Who among us could it be

An enlightened student of the stars
Once tried to show us
What he’d learned
But men weren't ready for the truth, he
Realised as he burned

Will it be you
Will it be me
Who among us is worthy
To cast the first stone
They called him a demon
