Light in the Valley ‎#109

109. My Home is on the Rock

1 Praise God, I live in Beulah land,
My House will all the storms withstand;
It is not built on sinking sand,
My Home is on the rock.

Chorus:
My Home is on the rock,
The everlasting rock;
I do not fear when storms are near,
My Home is on the rock.

2 When trials of life come thick and fast,
When clouds are o'er my pathway cast;
Secure, I can withstand the blast,
My Home is on the rock. [Chorus]

3 When troubles comes that would appall,
When other buildings round me fall;
I rest in Christ my all in all,
My Home is on the rock. [Chorus]

4 And when my time has come to die,
I'll have a mansion in the sky;
But still I'll sing as ages fly,
My Home is on the rock. [Chorus]
