Tear Off The Roof - Song from The Chosen

Updated: Jun 24, 2024

Remember that story in the Bible about dedicated friends opening a roof to get their friend to Jesus? This song was written to elevate a point. Why did these friends go through such measures to get to Jesus? Because, as the song says, "There's power in the presence, power in the blood, power in the name of Jesus..." These people believed! How much faith did they have? I can't say, but it was enough to go to extreme measures to gain an audience with Jesus. I hope that as you learn more about Jesus, you would know two things. One is believe in the power of Jesus so much that you won't stop putting your hope in Him and seeking Him out. The second is a theme found all throughout the Bible. His love. I want you to hear this song and know that Jesus loves human beings. Even you.



Verses for Consideration:


Psalm 117:2 For great is his steadfast love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever. Praise the Lord!

Ephesians 2:4-5a But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ


Lyrics:


Tear off the roof, the King's in the house

Just get me to Jesus, I don't care how

I don't have to wait to get the healing

I got a faith without a ceiling

So tear off the roof

'Cause the King's in the house


There's power in the presence

Power in the blood, power in the name of Jesus

There's power in the presence

Power in the blood, power in the name of Jesus

And He has more in the hem of His garment

Than the camp of the enemy

There's power in the presence

Power in the blood, power in the name of Jesus


I didn't come here to hide in the crowd

I'm pressing through to You, I don't care how

Reaching out my hand to get the healing

I've got a faith beyond the bleeding

'Cause I didn't come here to hide in the crowd, oh


There's power in the presence

Power in the blood, power in the name of Jesus

There's power in the presence

Power in the blood, power in the name of Jesus

He has more in the hem of His garment

Than the camp of the enemy

There's power in the presence

Power in the blood, power in the name of Jesus

There's power in the name of Jesus


There is a life changing

Grave shaking, dead raising power in the room

Heart-healing, hell-stealing

No ceiling power, so tear off the roof

Life changing, grave shaking (grave shaking)

Dead raising power in the room (resurrection)

Heart-healing, hell-stealing

No ceiling power, so tear off the roof


Life changing, grave shaking

Dead raising power in the room

Heart-healing, hell-stealing

No ceiling power, so tear off the roof

Life changing, grave shaking

Dead raising power in the room

Heart-healing, hell-stealing

No ceiling power, so tear off the roof

Tear off the roof, tear off the roof


'Cause there's power in the presence

Power in the blood, power in the name of Jesus

There's power in the presence

Power in the blood, power in the name of Jesus

He has more in the hem of His garment

Than the camp of the enemy

He has more in the hem of His garment

Than the camp of the enemy

There's power in the presence

Power in the blood, power in the name of Jesus, oh


In the name of Jesus

So much power in the name of Jesus
