To Cast The Stone by Gary R. Ferris
If a brother sins,
We’re quick to judge;
If someone hurts us,
We hold a grudge. ***** When a sister falls short,
We push her aside;
When we fall short,
We cover and hide. ***** When a neighbor offends,
Now he is wrong;
And if he offends you,
He will no longer belong. ***** We are too swift,
To punish our neighbor;
For when we do wrong,
We seek a favor. *****
Remember Jesus said,
“Let him with no sin;
Be the first one,
To cast the stone in”. *****
