Vocal line dramatically tells the story with shockingly strong ending on the words "built on solid rock." Running sixteenths in keyboard create "stormy tempest". Challenging and effective.
Lyrics
The Wise and Foolish Builders
Lyrics: Matthew 7:24-27, Luke 6:47-49, Adapted by Peter B. Allen
Composer: Peter B. Allen
Anyone who hears my words and acts upon them
Is like a wise man who built his house upon a rock.
Then the rain fell and the floods came and beat against the house
But it did not fall for it was built on solid rock. And it did not fall.
For it was built on solid rock. But anyone who hears my words and
Does not act upon them is like a foolish man who built his house
On sand on sand on sand.
Then the rain fell and the floods came and beat against the house
And it fell with a great crash.
