"Up On This Rock" lyrics

"Up On This Rock"

Now I lay me down to sleep
Pray the Lord my soul to keep
Mama told me "Just believe"
Build your life on one true thing

The foolish man built on sand
A house like that won't ever stand
Winds will rage and storms will land
But I'm gonna be a different man

Up on this rock, hell don't stand a chance
Heaven's got my back, this house is built to last
Up on this rock, my hope and confidence
My strength and sole defense, my faith was built for this

Lately I've been losin' sleep
Wide awake and countin' sheep
No lullaby can bring me peace
I know the One who calms the sea

Yeah, I know the One who rescues me

Up on this rock, hell don't stand a chance
Heaven's got my back, this house is built to last
Up on this rock, my hope and confidence
My strength and sole defense, my faith was built for this

Oh, my faith was built for this, my faith was built for this
My faith was built for this, my faith was built for this

Oh, my joy was built for this, my peace was built for this
My strength was built for this, this house was built for this
Brick by brick, day by day, building Your story
Grace to grace, strength to strength, all for Your glory
Brick by brick, day by day, building Your story
Grace to grace, strength to strength, all for Your glory
Brick by brick, day by day, building Your story
Grace to grace, strength to strength, all for Your glory
Brick by brick, day by day, building Your story
Grace to grace, strength to strength, all for Your glory
Brick by brick, day by day, building Your story
Grace to grace, strength to strength, all for Your glory
Brick by brick, day by day, building Your story
Grace to grace, strength to strength, all for Your glory
Brick by brick, day by day, building Your story
Grace to grace, strength to strength, all for Your glory

Up on this rock, hell don't stand a chance
Heaven's got my back, this house is built to last
Oh, up on this rock, my hope and confidence
My strength and sole defense, my faith was built for this

Oh, my faith was built for this, my faith was built for this
My faith was built for this, my faith was built for this

Brick by brick, day by day, building Your story
Grace to grace, strength to strength, all for Your glory
Brick by brick, day by day, building Your story
Grace to grace, strength to strength, all for Your glory
