This House

Pain will come
 Tears will flow
 Sorrow's gonna fight for my soul
 But Heaven knows where I stand
 Rains will pour
 Winds will blow
 Floods are gonna rise, oh, I know
 But hope ain't built on sinking sand
 I've seen enough to know
 You could lay bricks
 You could dig a foundation
 You could build up ten thousand feet tall
 But if it don't stand on the word of the Lord, this house's gonna fall
 You could put a cross right up on the steeple
 You could stain glass on every wall
 But if it don't stand on the word of the Lord, this house's gonna fall
 Empty words
 Are like empty rooms
 You can have it all but it only proves
 That without love it's just for show (oh, whoa)
 And you can give
 It all away
 You can even do it in Jesus' name
 But without love you're gonna do it alone
 Ooh! You could lay bricks
 You could dig a foundation
 You could build up ten thousand feet tall
 But if it don't stand on the word of the Lord, this house's gonna fall
 You could put a cross right up on the steeple
 You could stain glass on every wall
 But if it don't stand on the word of the Lord, this house's gonna fall
 My hope is built on nothing less
 Than Jesus' blood, my righteousness (my righteousness)
 And I dare not trust the sweetest frame
 But wholly lean on Jesus' name
 My hope is built (my hope is built) on nothing less (on nothing less)
 Than Jesus' blood, my righteousness (my righteousness)
 And I dare not trust (I dare not trust) the sweetest frame (the sweetest frame)
 But wholly lean on Jesus' name
 Jesus' name
 You could lay bricks
 You could dig a foundation
 You could build up ten thousand feet tall
 But if it don't stand on the word of the Lord, this house's gonna fall
 This house gonna fall
 You could lay bricks
 You could dig a foundation
 You could build up ten thousand feet tall
 But if it don't stand on the word of the Lord, this house's gonna fall
 This house gonna fall
 You could put a cross right up on the steeple
 You could stain glass on every wall
 But if it don't stand on the word of the Lord, this house's gonna fall
 If it don't stand on the word of the Lord, this house's gonna fall...
