Weight Of Glory

A ring of Pharisees and one of them was me

We loved the letter but not the spirit

An infidelity, a woman on her knees

She begged for mercy, we couldn't hear it



The teacher looked from us, his finger in the dust

We felt the chill and it shook us to our bones

And then he raised his head and this is what he said:

"The one who has not sinned should throw a stone"



I walked away in silence 

And threw myself upon the ground

These words, they burned inside me 

Take up your cross before your crown



Go and judge not

Lest ye be judged when the curtain comes down 



I walked away in silence 

And threw myself upon the ground

These words, they burned inside me 

Take up your cross before your crown



Take up your cross before your crown

Judge not, lest ye be judged when the curtain comes down

Take up your cross before your crown

Your cross before your crown.
