I will build my house up­on the Rock,
And I know it will stand for­ev­er;
Tho’ the rains des­cend and fierce winds blow,
I am sure it will fall, no nev­er.

Refrain

Christ is the Rock, Christ is the Rock,
Rock of my sal­va­tion;
Here will I build, here will I build,
On the sure found­ation.

No found­ation can by man be laid,
Than the one which the Lord hath tak­en;
’Tis a cor­ner­stone, pre­cious, elect,
By the tem­pests of earth ne’er shaken.

Refrain

On the sol­id rock I’ll dwell se­cure,
And I’ll sing of the sure found­ation,
Till the storms of life are ov­er­past,
Then re­joice in com­plete sal­va­tion.
