Building for Eternity (Sargent)

Author: N. B. Sargent Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #685 First Line: We are building in sorrow or joy Refrain First Line: We are building every day Lyrics: 1. We are building in sorrow or joy, A temple the world may not see, Which time cannot mar nor destroy: We build for eternity. Refrain We are building every day A temple the world may not see, Building, building every day, Building for eternity. 2. Every thought that we’ve ever had, Its own little place has filled; Every deed we have done, good or bad, Is a stone in the temple we build. [Refrain] 3. Every word that so lightly falls, Giving some heart joy or pain, Will shine in our temple walls, Or ever its beauty stain. [Refrain] 4. Are you building for God alone? Are you building in faith and love A temple the Father will own, In the city of light above? [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [We are building in sorrow or joy]
