Upon This Rock Composition by Joe Farrell(in 1974)
When others see with earthly eyes Just what they want to see. You will see the things that never die You will know and recognize By simple child-like faith The priceless truth that others will deny When others say I'm just a man Who likes to dream his dreams. When others call a miracle a myth You'll listen for eternity In moments as they pass And see with spirit eyes what others miss. Upon this rock I'll build My kingdom And on this rock forever and ever it shall stand And all the powers of hell itself Shall never more prevail against it For satan's thrones are built on sinking sand Upon this rock I'll build my kingdom And on this rock forever and ever it shall stand Upon this rock of revelation I'll build a strong and mighty nation And it shall stand the storms of time Upon this rock
If in a simple capenter You see the son of God. If you would choose to lose When you could win If you would give your life away for nothing In return, then you are where Upon this rock I'll build My kingdom And on this rock forever and ever it shall stand And all the powers of hell itself Shall never more prevail against it For satan's thrones are built on sinking sand Upon this rock I'll build my kingdom And on this rock forever and ever it shall stand Upon this rock of revelation I'll build a strong and mighty nation And it shall stand the storms of time Upon this rock I'll build my kingdom And on this rock forever it shall stand Upon this rock of revelation I'll build a strong and mighty nation And it shall stand the storms of time Upon this rock I'll build my church Upon this rock Upon this rock
