Surrounded with shouts, the cruel accusations
Dragged to the court, no hope of salvation
All hope was lost for those who had caught me
Knew what I was, they knew all about me
I thought it seemed strange as we entered in
They stopped a young Rabbi to ask His opinion
Caught in the act, their reason for hating
My body could feel the stones that were waiting
My judge, a man from Galilee
In His eyes, so gentle I could see
A father and a brother and a son
Just as I saw Him
The hope I had lost became born again
I was not hopeless
Though I'd been lost
Now, I felt I was found when He looked at me with His forgiving eyes
The crowd gathered 'round, so angry and violent
But He stood beside me, peaceful and silent
Then with a word with one question He showed them
That they too were guilty and could not condemn
The next thing I knew, He asked me, "Where are they?"
And I looked around, the courtyard was empty
The stones scattered 'round, the warm morning sunlight
He'd made the darkness perfectly light
In this new light now I understood
He would not condemn me, though He could
For He would be condemned someday for me
Just as I saw Him
The hope I had lost became born again
I was not hopeless
Though I'd been lost
Now, I felt I was found when He looked at me with His forgiving eyes
Forgiving eyes, ah-ah-ahh
