House on the rock
You tell me I should build my house on the rock
You say the rain will never wash away
No house on the rock
You tell me I should build my house on the rock
Nobody's looking, nobody cares
Nobody wonders what I'm doing today so
What does it matter if I wanna build on sandcastles
Throwing my life away
And yet you tell me that it's only just a matter
Of time before the rain begins to fall
And if my life is built on sand well
Then after the storm there won't be nothing left at all
House on the rock
You tell me I should build my house on the rock
You say the rain will never wash away
No house on the rock
You tell me I should build my house on the rock
Maybe you think that you can live forever
On a dream and a name and a song
But you'd wish you'd given your life to the real life saviour
The first flood that comes along
Somebody's looking
Somebody cares
Somebody wonders what you're doing today
You know we're crucified and buried him but
Three days later well the stone
Got rolled away
And yes it's, only just a matter of time
The latter rain has begun to fall
And if your life is built on sand
Well then after the storm
There won't be nothing left at all
House on the rock
Tell you, you should build your house on the rock
You see the rain will never wash away
No house on the rock
Tell you, you should build your house on the rock
I'm so glad that I have built my house on the rock
Everybody ought to build their house on the rock
Tell you, you should build your house on the rock
I'm so glad that I have built my house on the rock
