Two years ago the Lord called my husband and I to start a church in our home. Sometimes obedience comes with a cost- yet as always with the Lord, that which we gain when we obey Him is so much more than that which we lose. The Lord has blessed us with a beautiful family of believers who are so on fire for the Lord and sharing His good news with others. The Lord put the name Living Stones on our hearts way before we even knew He would call us ‘home’! The words of this song are taken from the Living Stones verses in 1 Peter 2:4-5
“4 Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious, 5 you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. “
I hope this song can encourage you as a living stone in the kingdom of God, being built up into a spiritual house, as one who has been called out of darkness into His marvellous light! A massive thank you to Ilir and James as always for their help in recording, and to the Living Stones who appeared so graciously in this video for me!!
I’d love to hear your thoughts (haha if they’re nice!) Don’t forget to subscribe,
love and blessings, Sarah

LYRICS
We come to You Jesus, to the Living Stone
Forsaken rejected by men
Yet chosen and precious Lord we give You praise
We magnify Your name
(x2)
We are a chosen generation, royal priesthood, holy nation,
Proclaiming the praises of Jesus our Saviour
Called out of darkness into light oh so marvellous
Though once we were far away now we’re the people of God
How great is the mercy and grace of God
We come to You Jesus as the living stones
Bringing our offering of praise
Being built up together as a holy house
We magnify Your name
Jesus Precious One
The Chief Cornerstone
Those who believe Your Name
They won’t be put to shame
(X2)
