Thrice - Weight Of Glory lyrics

A ring of Pharisees and one of them was me

We loved the letter but not the spirit

An infidelity, a woman on her knees

She begged for mercy, we couldn't hear it

The teacher looked from us, his finger in the dust

We felt the chill and it shook us to our bones

Then he raised his head and this is what he said,

“The one who has not sin should throw a stone”

I walked away in silence

and threw myself upon the ground

These words they burned inside me

Take up your cross before your crown

Go and judge not, lest ye be judged with the girl and come down

I walked away in silence

and threw myself upon the ground

These words they burned inside me

Take up your cross before your crown

Take up your cross before your crown

Judge not, lest ye be judged with the girl and come down

Take up your cross before your crown

Your cross before your crown
