The seers and the prophets as foretold in long ago
That the long awaited one would make man stumble
That they were looking for a king to conquer and to kill
Who’d have ever thought he’d be so meek and humble
(Chorus)
He will be the truth that will offend them one and all
A stone that makes men stumble
And a rock that makes them fall
And many will be broken so that He can make them whole
And many will be crushed and loose their own soul
Along the path of life there lies a stubborn scandalon
And all who come this way must be offended
To some He is a barrier to others He’s the way
For all should know the scandal of believing
(Chorus)
He will be the truth that will offend them one and all
A stone that makes men stumble
And a rock that makes them fall
And many will be broken so that He can make them whole
And many will be crushed and loose their own soul
It seems today the scandalon offends no one at all
The image we present could be stepped over
Could it be that we are like the others long ago
Will we ever learn that all who come must stumble
(Chorus)
He will be the truth that will offend them one and all
A stone that makes men stumble
And a rock that makes them fall
And many will be broken so that He can make them whole
And many will be crushed and loose their own soul
