Lyrics
The stone that the builder refuse
Will always be the head cornerstone (words of wisdom)
The stone that the builder refuse (crying in the windy day)
Will always be the head cornerstone (saying)
Forsake not your brother (forsake not my brother)
Just try and help each other (just help each other)
Behold, Jah is mighty (Jah is mighty)
Yet He sit with the highly, sit with the lowly
Sit with the highly, sit with the lowly
Say the stone that the builder refuse
Will always be the head cornerstone
(The stone that the builder refuse) coming from the wise man
(Will always be the head cornerstone) it's words of wisdom
Ooh-ooh ooh, ooh-ooh ooh, ooh-ooh ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh ooh, ooh-ooh ooh, ooh-ooh ooh, ooh, ooh
One more thing
Though I've been with you so long (been with you so long)
I'm still a stranger in your land (stranger in your land)
That's why, you prosecute I
But Jah sit with the highly (ooh-ooh ooh, ooh-ooh ooh)
And He sit with the lowly (ooh-ooh ooh, ooh, ooh)
He sit with the lowly (ooh-ooh ooh, ooh-ooh ooh)
He sit with the highly (ooh-ooh ooh, ooh, ooh)
Ooh hallelujah, hallelu-hallelu-hallelujah
Ooh hallelujah, hallelu-hallelu-hallelujah
Ooh hallelujah, hallelu-hallelu-hallelujah
Behold Jah is mighty (ooh, hallelujah, hallelu-hallelu-hallelujah)
Sit with the highly (ooh, hallelujah, hallelu-hallelu-hallelujah)
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is (ooh, hallelujah, hallelu-hallelu-hallelujah)
Behold (ooh, hallelujah, hallelu-hallelu-hallelujah)
Behold (ooh, hallelujah, hallelu-hallelu-hallelujah)
