The Upper Room Lyrics & Music by Colin McCrow © 1987 LeiEz Music CCLI Song No: Not Listed, Source: Impact CCL 13216 Used by permission Verse 1 Sometimes I almost get discouraged, When I see that you don't understand; The things that we've seen and done together, They are a part of Salvations plan. Bridge 1 I wish that you could get through, The prejudices that you hold, Your nation oh it crumbles, It crumbles all around you; I pray that you will be strong, I pray that you will be bold; And that your faith will hold; And that your faith will hold. Verse 2 I look around in this upper room, I look to see a leader of men; There are no leaders among you I can see, Ready to share of salvations plan. Bridge 2 I look at you, dear Peter, I see a rough-hewn diamond, See, you must learn self-control, Yes, you must put self away, I know that you will have vict'ry When you out your faith in me, And saved I know you'll be; And saved I know you'll be. Chorus Oh the upper room, how it changed their life, When they saw salvations plan; Though they did not seem to understand their part; Though it would start, the change in their hearts; Though it would start very soon. Verse 3 Over there I see Brother Judas, I know that you'll dip your bread with mine I wish you'd see my love and passion, I wish that you'd put your trust in me, Bridge 3 Your self is so important, It blinds all of your values; I know that is your downfall, The devil has you taken; I wish that you'd take this last chance, And you'd turn your life around; I want you to be free; I want you to be free. Chorus Oh the upper room, how it changed their life, When they saw salvations plan; Though they did not seem to understand their part; Though it would start, the change in their hearts; Though it would start very soon.
