Where Will You Build

Artist:The Louvin Brothers
Writer:The Louvin Brothers


Where will you build friend where will you build
On the sinking sand or the rock on the hill
Through the rain and storm will your building stand
It's sure to fall if you're building on the sand

Jesus spoke in parables that we might understand
Of the foolish man who built his house upon the sand
When the rain and storms down and beat upon that house
Jesus said it fell and great was its cost

Where will you build friend where will you build
On the sinking sand or the rock on the hill
Through the rain and storm will your building stand
It's sure to fall if you're building on the sand

Then Jesus teaching his disciples spoke of a man
The wise man that built his house upon the solid rock
When the rain and storms came down and beat upon that house
Jesus tells us in his word that house fell not

Where will you build friend where will you build
On the sinking sand or the rock on the hill
Through the rain and storm will your building stand
It's sure to fall if you're building on the sand
