Building On The Rock

I'm building my house on the Rock,
it's going up brick by brick
I'm using the Word as the mortar
so my faith in God will stick.

The Rock will be my anchor,
for every tempest that comes my way
and I'll hold onto its awesome power
until the tempter goes away.

As the howling winds attack me,
my house will not tip or fall
for the Rock is the eternal strength
that dwells in each and every wall.

Though the flood waters will rise,
my house will not go under
for its foundation is set in God's grace
and is a testament to His wonder.

I'm building my house on the Rock,
not on a pile of sand . . .
I'm trusting God to keep it strong
so before Him - I can stand!

Matthew 7: 23-24

"Therefore whoever hears these sayings
of Mine, and does them, I will liken
him to a wise man who built his house
on the rock: and the rain descended,
the floods came, and the winds blew and
beat on that house; and it did not
fall, for it was founded on the rock.
