Useful detail

Performance tip

Before performing Cornerstone, map the verse order carefully because the lyric gives you relatively few repeated lines as landmarks. For Cornerstone, that detail will matter more than adding extra volume.

Recommendation

Should you sing it?

Choose Cornerstone when a lived-in, first-person delivery suits you. It has more changing verse text than repeated hook material, with fairly active phrasing. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
