Built on the Rock (Wise and Foolish Builders)

+ Show full styles

Verse 1
Two men stood with the very same dream,
Hands on the plow, building what couldn't be seen.
One dug deep where the bedrock lay,
One chose the easy and quicker way.
The skies grew dark, the thunder rolled,
The wind blew hard, then the rain turned cold.
Both would face the storm that came,
But only one would remain the same.
Pre-Chorus
It's not enough to hear the sound,
Truth must take root in holy ground.
Chorus
I'm gonna build my life on the Rock,
Standing on Christ who never will stop.
When the rivers rise and the mountains shake,
My Savior holds me, He'll never break.
Not on the sand that slips away,
Not on the lies that the world will say.
I'll trust Your Word through every trial,
Because you're my foundation all the while.
I'm gonna build...
Build on the Rock.
Verse 2
Every promise You've spoken to me is true,
Every step I take, Lord, I'll follow You.
Faith is more than words we sing,
It's a life surrendered to the King.
Storms will come to every soul,
But Your grace Lord will make me whole.
Though the lightning splits all over the sky,
Your love will never say goodbye.
Pre-Chorus
I don't want money, don't want fame,
I just want the world to know Your name.
Chorus
I'm gonna build my life on the Rock,
Standing on Christ who never will stop.
When the rivers rise and the mountains shake,
My Savior holds me, He'll never break.
Not on the sand that slips away,
Not on the lies that the world will say.
I'll trust Your Word through every trial,
You're my foundation all the while.
I'm gonna build...
Build on the Rock.
Bridge
When the rain falls down—You are faithful.
When the flood surrounds—You are able.
When the wind cries out—I'll keep believing.
You're the Cornerstone I'm receiving.
I hear Your voice and walk Your way,
Living out everything that You would say.
Every heartbeat, and every breath,
I'm built on Christ until my death.
Final Chorus
I'm gonna build my life on the Rock,
King of Glory, Shepherd of the flock.
Through every valley, every fight,
You're my hope, You're my guiding light.
And when this world is finally gone,
Your Kingdom still goes marching on.
Standing firm through endless ages,
Written in redemption's pages.
I'm gonna build my life on the Rock...
Jesus Christ, my foundations block.
The winds may howl, the seas may roar,
But my house in Him will stand forevermore.
Outro
On Christ alone, I'll stand secure.
Your Word is true, Your love endures.
I'll hear... I'll trust... and I'll obey...
And build on the Rock each and everyday.
