One by one we brought them here
Stones of pride and stones of fear
They help us remember all our differences

Human wisdom built these walls
Lord of mercy, see how tall
And some of us claim to know
Which side you're on

Stone by stone - until the walls come down
And we're face to face on holy ground
Stone by Stone - until the walls come down
And we fall to our knees on holy ground

Tell me, does it make you cry
To hear the accusations fly
We're claiming to know each other's hearts
Oh, make us truly humble Lord
Until it's you that we adore
Instead of our opinion or point of view

Stone by stone - until the walls come down
And we're face to face on holy ground
Stone by Stone - until the walls come down
And we fall to our knees on holy ground

Give us humble hearts
Tears to cry
Grace to love
And peace of mind


Stone by Stone

How can I call my children home
Only to find a house divided?
How can I call my children home?
Are you willing to be my voice
to speak my word, to show my love?

I am calling to my sons and daughters
Open your hearts to me
Put away your hatred and your anger
I long to set you free

How can I call my children home
Only to find a house divided?
How can I call my children home?
Are you willing to be my voice
to speak my word, to show my love?

Many stumble in their worldly riches, dreaming of luxury
who will wake them from their deadly slumber
and call them to my side?

I am calling to my sons and daughters
Open your hearts to me
Put away your hatred and your anger
I long to set you free

How can I call my children home
Only to find a house divided?
How can I call my children home?
Are you willing to be my voice
to speak my word, to show my love?

How can I call my children home
Only to find a house divided?
How can I call my children home?
Are you willing to be my voice
to speak my word, to show my love?

How can I call my children home?

How Can I call My Children Home

Written by Niles Borop and Billy Sprague, I first heard this sung by Sandi Patty and have loved it ever since. The title is the Italian for "Way of Suffering" and is the name of the street Jesus carried his cross through Jerusalem. The Spanish portion is a partial translation of the English lyrics.

Down the Vía Dolorosa
In Jerusalem that day
The soldiers tried to clear the narrow streets
But the crowd pressed in to see
The man condemned to die on Calvary

He was bleeding from a beating
There were stripes upon his back
And he wore a crown of thorns upon his head
And he bore with every step
The scorn of those who cried out for his death

Down the Vía Dolorosa called "The Way of Suffering"
Like a lamb, came the Messiah Christ the King
But he chose to walk that road out of his love for you and me
Down the Vía Dolorosa, all the way to Calvary.

Por la Vía Dolorosa triste dia en Jerusalem
los soldados le abrian paso a Jesus
mas la gente se acercaba
para ver al que llevaba aquella cruz

Por la Via Dolorosa
que es "La Via Del Dolor"
Como oveja vino Cristo, Rey, Señor
y fue El quien quiso ir
por su amor por ti y por mi
Por la Via Dolorosa
al Calvario y a morir.

The blood that would cleanse
the souls of all men
Made its way through the heart of Jerusalem

Down the Vía Dolorosa called the way of suffering
Like a lamb came the Messiah Christ the King
But he chose to walk that road out of his love for you and me
Down the Vía Dolorosa, all the way to Calvary


Via Dolorosa

Let my word be spoken
In the morning, through the day
Whisper my word
In the stillness of the night

Let my word be planted.
Deep inside your soul
Give my word the time now to unfold

It has the power to change you
It has the power to free you
It has the power to save you forever
Surrender to my word
Surrender to my word

Wrap my word all around you
Breathe my word deep inside you
Offer my word like water to the world

It has the power to change you
It has the power to free you
It has the power to save you forever
Surrender to my word
Surrender to my word

Live my word for the doubter
Sing my word to the weary
Carry my word like a fire in the dark

It has the power to change you
It has the power to free you
It has the power to save you forever
Surrender to my word
Surrender to my word

Surrender to My Word

O Lord, my God, I trust in Thee
To be my true and lasting peace
O Lord, my God, I trust in Thee
To be my true and lasting peace

O Lord, my God I long for Thee
Come break the chains still binding me
O Lord, my God I long for Thee
Come break the chains still binding me

O Lord, my God I long for Thee
Come break the chains still binding me
O Lord, my God I long for Thee
Come break the chains still binding me

O Lord, my God I long for Thee
Come break the chains still binding me

Break The Chains

Come, come to the quiet
Come, come to the quiet
There you will find 
true peace of mind
Come to the quiet of the Lord

God of all authority
You guide the stars, you come the sea
Guide me to tranquility
Calm the storm inside of me

God of glory, God of might
Let me fly through darkest night
To the place of purest light
Give me wings, O, give me sight

Come, come to the quiet
Come, come to the quiet
There you will find (there you will find)
true peace of mind 
Come to the quiet of the Lord

Come to the Quiet

Here in the shadow of your wings
Here in the safety of you
Nothing in this world
Seen or unseen
Is stronger than your gentle love

Every single breath I draw from you
And my tired heart, your word renews
Every dream you give to me
Every blessing, every joy

You are always walking by my side
You are always calling me to life
You are always there for me
When I call out, you answer

Here in the shadow of your wings
Here in the safety of you
Nothing in this world
Seen or unseen
Is stronger than your gentle love
Is stronger than your gentle love

Now you are my shelter from the storm
Now you are my shelter from the storm
I'm safe here in the shadow of your wings
I'm safe here in the shadow of your wings

Shadow Of Your Wings

Before and behind
Above and below
You are surrounding me
Everywhere I go

Lord of moments to come
And memories passed
You are the first and the last

Bring us beyond all fear
Draw us into your heart
And let us at last begin to embrace
The piece that flows out from you

You are before and behind
Above and below
You are surrounding me
Everywhere I go
Lord of moments to come
And memories past
You are the first and the last

When you seem far away
When it's hard to understand
Your love outshines
The deepest darkness
If we have eyes to see
Give us eyes to see

You are before and behind
Above and below
You are surrounding me
Everywhere I go
Lord of moments to come
And memories past
You are the first and the last

You are before and behind
Above and below
You are surrounding me
Everywhere I go
Lord of moments to come
And memories past
You are the first and the last


First and The Last
