Poetry
Stephen preached the gospel
Many lives were changed
Now old Satan could not take it
He had too much to lose
Stephen a man full of faith
Looked up to Heaven
There he saw Jesus
Standing up for him
A standing ovation
From the Father’s Throne
But down on earth
It was not the same
Noises were so loud
They stopped up their ears
Running toward Stephen
Cast him out of the city
Stephen was being stoned
While calling upon his God
"Lay not this sin to their charge"
Then Stephen fell asleep

The Story from the Bible of the stoning of Stephen
..you who have received the Law ordained by angels, yet have not kept it.” On hearing this, the members of the Sanhedrin were enraged, and they gnashed their teeth at him. But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked intently into heaven and saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. Acts 7: 53-55
