[Hook]

Oh, we stand as those disrespected

Even the chief cornerstone was rejected

We are not the creme of the crop

But we stand among the things that are not

Oh, what is my life? I’m laying it down

For the joy set before me and grace will abound

Take the stand people of God

We stand with Jesus as things that are not

Hands up, up in surrender to the one that justifies no public defender

The one pursuing His people He’s coming to get you

Even if your heart’s cold, stuck in December

Holy and just, look how righteous our God is

Rock of Salvation, look how Christ is exalted

Cats think it’s foolish thinking the system is flawed

But they don’t understand that this is the wisdom of God

He ransomed the wicked, embraced the despised

And paid for our sin with grace in His eyes

He hung on the cross face to the sky

Until He hung his head, our savior has died

This is God’s plan for us to be saved

That He would go down then come up from the grave

To pay the penalty of sin, believe it or not

So we bring to the block the things that are not

[Hook]

He is the one who command the hosts of the heavens

He alone is Jehovah and He chose that the message

would come from the old and decrepit the broken and wretched

He chose the rejected so no one could boast in this presence

the King of King He came in manger

The most famous of all but He came as a stranger

He came to his own but they didn’t receive Him

He told us the truth but we didn’t believe Him

Because He was unassuming, see Jesus was poor

You couldn’t look at Him and tell that He was the Lord

The world thought they were wise but God was pleased

through the folly of the gospel saving all who believe

We’re weak in this world for shaming the strong

God chose is to be the name of this song

Trusting in Christ ‘cause He is our Rock

So we bring to the block the things that are not

[Hook]
