Story Behind The Song
I thought it would be fun to have a real rockin', uplifting song to extol the virtues of Jesus in our lives. After all, since Jesus is our rock....why not let the song about him rock too!
Song Description
The song says the word is not built on shifting sand, but on solid rock. Jesus is like the rock of Gibraltar ....the one constant that we can all lean on. He's always there for us to rely on when our souls need guidance.

Lyrics
JESUS IS A ROCK
By Randy Bishop (ASCAP) & David Wright, Copyright 2004
Hey everybody, let's have some fun
We're gonna raise our hands to the Holy one
C'mon c'mon, let everybody know
Well Jesus is a rock, and He'll rock your soul
Now I don't care what you've been told
Jesus is a rock, and He'll rock your soul
Chorus:
Jesus is a rock, and He'll rock your soul
He's the king and He's in control
C'mon c'mon, let everybody know
That Jesus is a rock, and He'll rock your soul
It don't matter if you're young or old
Jesus is a rock and He'll rock your soul
Bridge:
Open up the windows, unlock the doors
When trouble comes a knockin', just give it to the Lord
C'mon c'mon, what are you waitin' for
When you're feelin' down, or you're feelin' blue
Have faith in the Lord and He'll come through
Cause Jesus is a rock, and He'll rock your soul
Hey everybody, you need to know
Jesus is here, and He'll make you whole
He gave his life, to save our souls
So, clap your hands, and sing His name
You've got to trust in the Lord for everything
C'mon, c'mon, let everybody know
Ending:
Jesus is a rock, and He'll rock your soul (Repeat)
