Ezekiel Said He Saw Him -i Call Jesus My Rock- Lyrics |top|

In the vast landscape of gospel and contemporary Christian music, certain lyrics transcend melody to become personal declarations of faith. One such powerful phrase that has been resonating in worship services, choir rehearsals, and personal devotionals is the line: "Ezekiel said he saw him - I call Jesus my rock."

Ezekiel said he saw Him, Way up in the middle of the air. Ezekiel said he saw Him, Way up in the middle of the air. A wheel within a wheel, And the Spirit in the wheel, Ezekiel said he saw Him, Way up in the middle of the air. ezekiel said he saw him -i call jesus my rock- lyrics

My Rock (My Rock) My Fortress (My Fortress) My Deliverer (My Deliverer) In times of trouble… He’s a Rock in a weary land, A shelter in the time of storm. In the vast landscape of gospel and contemporary

Ezekiel saw Him in a storm of fire and lightning. Daniel saw Him sitting on a throne. But you? You don't just have to see Him. You can Him. A wheel within a wheel, And the Spirit

The song captures the mystery of that vision. However, theologically, Ezekiel did not see God the Father in full glory, but the Kavod (weighty glory) of God. Gospel songwriters interpret this pre-incarnate appearance as a Christophany—an appearance of Christ before His birth in Bethlehem. Hence, "Ezekiel said he saw Him." The chorus shifts from prophecy to personal relationship. "I call Jesus my Rock" is rooted in Paul’s writing: "They drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ." (1 Corinthians 10:4).
