Product Description

A unique New Age piano solo arrangement that takes a very simple children's tune and plays around with major and minor keys to provide a contrast for the stormy verses. The rubato tempo and dynamic phrasing add interest and emotion while keeping it accessible to the early intermediate pianist. 4 pages. Performance time: approximately 3:10.

Lyrics:

The wise man built his house upon the rock,
The wise man built his house upon the rock,
The wise man built his house upon the rock,
And the rains came tumbling down.

The rains came down and the floods came up,
The rains came down and the floods came up,
The rains came down and the floods came up,
And the house on the rock stood still.

The foolish man built his house upon the sand,
The foolish man built his house upon the sand,
The foolish man built his house upon the sand,
And the rains came tumbling down.

The rains came down and the floods came up,
The rains came down and the floods came up,
The rains came down and the floods came up,
And the house on the sand washed away.
