1 On the solid Rock I am building,
And my home will surely stand the storm;
Tho’ the tempest rage fierce and madly,
All is safe, for it can do no harm.
Refrain:
On the solid Rock is my building sure,
Tho’ the tempest shock, still it is secure.
On the solid Rock I am building,
And my house will surely stand the storm.
2 On the solid Rock I am building,
Precious stones, gold, silver, may all be
That I place each day in the temple,
I am building for eternity. [Refrain]
3 On the solid Rock I am building,
Wood and hay and stubble will not stand
For the fires of God will destroy them,
His approval they can ne’er command. [Refrain]
4 On the solid Rock I am building,
And my work will surely there abide;
Then the Lord will say, Faithful servant,
A reward awaits you by my side. [Refrain]
5 O my brother, where are you building,
Is your house upon the Rock, or sand?
When the winds and waves beat upon it,
Will it fall in wreck, or will it stand? [Refrain]
