about

Christian Praise and Worship Song

Song based on these scriptures in regards to the Cornerstone.

In Isaiah 28:16 the Lord said, “See, I lay in Zion a stone, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, firmly placed…”

The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. (Psalm 118:22-23)

“…by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands before you whole. He is ‘the stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone.’ There is no salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” (Acts 4:10-12)

So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, 20 built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone (Ephesians 2:19–20).

“Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious,” (1 Peter 2:4–6)

lyrics

True to the Word this stone refused,
By the builders, was the Rock of Israel.
So, don’t pass by and ignore this rock
Or you will stumble trip and fall.

Cornerstone, Cornerstone
Jesus is the Rock
Cornerstone, Cornerstone
Upon this Rock I'll stand.

Be not ashamed, never run away,
In your belief in the Rock of Israel.
So, don’t pass by and ignore this Rock
Or you will stumble, trip and fall.

Cornerstone, Cornerstone
Jesus is the Rock
Cornerstone, Cornerstone
Upon this Rock I'll stand.

Build on this Rock
Be firm in your faith
and You will know the Lord.

Cornerstone, Cornerstone
Jesus is the Rock
Cornerstone, Cornerstone
Upon this Rock I'll stand.
