“The Upper Room – The Day The Church Was Born”
"The Upper Room," a new song celebrating Pentecost, captures the profound significance and joyous essence of the day the Church was born.
Pentecost, often referred to as the day the Church was born, is a pivotal event in Christian history that took place fifty days after Passover, commemorating the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the apostles and other followers of Jesus Christ as described in the Book of Acts, chapter 2.
On this day, while the disciples were gathered in Jerusalem, a powerful wind filled the house and tongues of fire appeared, resting on each of them. This miraculous event enabled them to speak in various languages, allowing them to proclaim the gospel to the diverse crowd of Jews from different regions who had come to Jerusalem for the Feast of Weeks.
The Apostle Peter, emboldened by the Holy Spirit, delivered a compelling sermon that led to the conversion and baptism of about three thousand people.
This mass conversion marked the foundation of the Christian Church, signifying a new era of spreading the teachings of Jesus and the establishment of a faith community that would grow and spread across the globe.
"The Upper Room" not only commemorates the historical and spiritual birth of the Christian Church but also serves as a contemporary reminder of the ongoing presence and power of the Holy Spirit in believers' lives today.

"The Upper Room"
We Were More Than Five Hundred Strong When We Saw Him Rise
We All Heard The Angels Singing And Rejoicing From On High
But When The Day Came And We Were In That Upper Room
Only A Hundred Or So Were Still With Us To Receive The Truth.
Then A Mighty Rushing Wind Blew Open The Door
And Ushered In The Promise, The Promise Of The Lord
Something I Had Never Felt And Had Never Seen Before
We Fell On Our Knees And Worshipped As We Were Being Filled.
Graves Were Opened And The Dead Lived Again
Lazarus Said “He Called Me Out By Name”
While We Were Still Hard Of Heart He Called Us His “Friends”
The Soldier Testified “This Truly Was The Son Of God”.
Peter Started To Speak And Then He Could Not Stop
Like A Fire Shut Up In His Bones When He Opened Up His Mouth
By The End Of The Night We Were 3,000 Strong
All Because Of What Happened In That Upper Room.
We Did Not Know How Much More We Could Take
Our Hearts Were Broken And Then His Love Came Down
Filling Our Souls After All We Had Been Through
Then We Remembered What He Said Had Come True …
In My Name You Will Speak In New Tongues
In My Name You Will See Them Come
And In My Name Purchased By My Blood
The Promise Of The Father Has Come.
The City Heard Us Speak, Everyone In Their Native Tongue
Word Spread Like Fire About All That He He Had Done
Night Turned In To Day And Then The Soldiers Came
And When They Heard The Truth They Bowed Their Knees And Prayed.
Then That Upper Room Could Not Hold Us Any More
We Went From House To House And Went From Door To Door
People Gave All They Had In Thanks To The Lord
That’s How The Church Began … That’s How The Church Was Born.
Some Leaders Did Not Like The Changes That Were Being Made
But No One Could Deny The Power In His Name
Hearts Were Being Changed And People Being Freed
Demons Would Flee At The Mention Of His Name.
And Then It Came To Pass Just Like The Prophet Said It Would
And Our Sons And Our Daughters Spoke A Bold New Word
The Chains That Held The People Had Been Broken By His Love
And We Finally Understood The Power Of His Blood.
In My Name You Will Speak In New Tongues
In My Name You Will See Them Come
And In My Name Purchased By My Blood
The Promise Of The Father Has Come.
The Promise Came … In That Upper Room
When His Glory Came Down … In That Upper Room
In That Upper Room … When His Love Broke Through
In That Upper Room … In That Upper Room.

Truth matters.
You can trust that our Songs are scripture-based and are Biblically, theologically and foundationally solid.
The message(s) in each song is Scripturally accurate and worthy of being a “stand-alone” sermon or teaching!
We are 100% Born-Again, Spirit-filled Christians and we do not support the ecumenical One-World One-Church Movement, the teaching/appearance of Gold Dust or Angel’s Feathers in Church meetings, the false doctrine of “grave sucking” or gaining spiritual power by sleeping on top of the graves of dead people, the use of spirit tour guides, astral projections or other “strange fire” doctrines, beliefs, ideologies and heresies presented by many well-known mega “churches” and musical groups.
We are expecting ALL of our Christian Praise and Worship Song Library to be available on CCLI's Song Select in English and Spanish very soon.
